IIT Delhi Project Consultant Recruitment 2026: 2 Vacancies

These roles are ideal for highly experienced post-graduates in Biotechnology, Life Science, Food Science & Technology, or Food Nutrition, with a minimum of six years of relevant experience. Candidates should possess strong communication skills, expertise in areas like nutrition or research/fund management, and be prepared for travel. This opportunity is well-suited for individuals seeking high-responsibility, project-based roles within a premier educational institution's research environment.

Individuals who do not meet the specified post-graduate qualifications or have less than six years of mandatory experience should not apply. These positions are contractual and project-based; therefore, candidates seeking permanent government employment may find them unsuitable. Furthermore, those uncomfortable with intermittent travel (up to 20% annually) may also find the roles challenging.

Working with the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, an Institution of National Importance, offers significant prestige and exposure to cutting-edge research environments within the Industrial Research & Development (IRD) Unit and the Centre for Rural Development & Technology (CRDT). While the positions are contractual, they provide invaluable experience and networking opportunities within academic and research circles, enhancing future career prospects and contributing to impactful projects supported by organizations like the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
