Stores & Purchase Officer

This role is ideal for seasoned professionals with a Master's degree in Management, Administration, or Commerce, possessing at least 8 years of dedicated experience in Stores & Purchase. Candidates with prior experience in government, PSU, or central autonomous bodies are highly preferred, particularly those with a strong grasp of ERP, GeM portal, GFR 2017, and relevant Central Government rules. The position demands a proactive individual capable of building and managing an entire supply chain and purchasing infrastructure from inception.

Individuals lacking the mandatory 8 years of experience in Stores & Purchase, or those without a Master's degree in the specified fields, should not apply. The strict age limit of 55 years with no relaxations for any category is a critical factor. Those seeking a permanent government position should note this is a three-year term-based appointment.

Joining IIM Guwahati, an institution of national importance, offers significant prestige and a unique opportunity to shape foundational infrastructure. This role provides substantial responsibility and exposure to high-level procurement and supply chain management within an academic environment. While initially a contractual role, exceptional performance could lead to adjustment against a sanctioned position, offering long-term career growth in a reputable public sector educational body.
