Accountant

This role is ideal for experienced finance professionals with a Bachelor's degree in Commerce/Accounting/Finance, preferably holding an M.Com, MBA (Finance), CA Inter, CMA, or ICWA qualification. Candidates should have a minimum of 5 years of post-qualification experience in finance, accounts, or audit departments, ideally within reputed educational institutions or PSUs. Strong proficiency in accounting software and ERP platforms like Tally Prime/SAP is crucial.

Individuals with less than 5 years of professional experience in the relevant fields, or those lacking a Bachelor's degree in Commerce/Accounting/Finance, should not apply. Candidates seeking a permanent government position may find the three-year term-based appointment unsuitable. Those without strong IT skills related to accounting software will also struggle in this role.

Working for a prestigious institution like IIM Guwahati offers significant career enhancement and exposure to high-level financial operations within an autonomous educational body under the Government of India. While initially a three-year contract, the role provides an excellent opportunity to gain invaluable experience in a dynamic academic environment, with potential for adjustment against a sanctioned position based on performance.
