Office/fieldwork balance, duties, organizational environment.

The Senior Project Associate will be deployed at the Chhattisgarh State Centre for Climate Change, situated at Aranya Bhawan, Nava Raipur, with selection organized through IIM Raipur. The role focuses on developing, modernizing, and maintaining state climate change monitoring dashboards, GIS/climate data portals, and department web applications. Key responsibilities include software architecture, data compilation, automated reporting, and web content administration. The position may involve periodic fieldwork in interior forest areas across Chhattisgarh for environmental data verification and telemetry setup.

Posting & Transfer Policy

Initial posting criteria, zone preferences, transfer liability.

The appointment is purely contractual for an initial tenure of one year from the date of joining, extendable subject to project requirements and satisfactory performance. Primary duty location is at Aranya Bhawan, Naya Raipur, Chhattisgarh.

Career & Promotion Ladder

Promotion timeline, seniority ladder, pay grade scaling.

This is a fixed-term project engagement without regular absorption rights into IIM Raipur or Chhattisgarh State Forest Department cadres. However, working on state-level climate change data systems and high-level GIS/data platforms offers valuable government analytics exposure and strong standing for senior consulting or data engineering roles across UNDP, UNEP, MoEFCC, and international development agencies.
