Accountant

This role is ideal for meticulous finance professionals with a Bachelor's degree in Commerce or Accounting/Finance, supplemented by an M.Com, MBA (Finance), or professional accounting certifications like CA Inter, CMA, or ICWA. Candidates should possess at least 5 years of post-qualification experience in finance, accounts, or audit, coupled with strong expertise in accounting software (e.g., Tally Prime, SAP). Experience within educational institutions or autonomous bodies is a significant advantage.

Individuals without a foundational degree in Commerce or Accounting/Finance, or those lacking the minimum 5 years of relevant post-qualification experience, should not apply. The position is a three-year term-based appointment, making it unsuitable for candidates exclusively seeking immediate permanent government employment.

Working at a prestigious institution like IIM Guwahati offers an excellent platform for professional development and enhances a candidate's profile within the education sector. While the role is contractual for three years, it provides valuable experience in a high-calibre academic environment, potentially opening doors for future opportunities within the institute or similar organizations. The opportunity to work in a well-regarded autonomous body can significantly boost one's career trajectory.
