Management Associate Finance & Management Associate Purchase

This role is ideal for experienced Bachelor's degree holders in Commerce or Finance with a minimum of 5 years of relevant experience in either finance or procurement. Candidates should possess strong computer skills, including proficiency in specific software systems like Tally/PFMS for finance roles or GeM/CPPP Portal for purchase roles. A background in autonomous research institutes, especially centrally funded ones, would be an added advantage. Applicants must be prepared for a contractual engagement of eleven months.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as these positions are purely temporary and contractual. Those without the mandatory 5 years of relevant experience in finance or purchase, or without a Bachelor's degree in Commerce/Finance, will not meet the essential eligibility criteria. Candidates unable to attend the walk-in interview on July 29, 2026, or submit their application via email by July 27, 2026, will be ineligible. The remuneration is fixed at Rs. 45,000 per month, which might be a dealbreaker for candidates expecting higher pay scales or additional allowances.

The Institute of Nano Science and Technology (INST) is a respectable autonomous research institute under the Department of Science and Technology, Government of India, offering a valuable opportunity to work within a central government-funded scientific environment. While the positions are contractual for a limited duration of eleven months, they provide excellent exposure and experience in specialized administrative functions (finance or purchase) within a research setting. This could be a good stepping stone for professionals looking to gain government sector experience or contribute to scientific administration, though it doesn't offer long-term job security or career progression within INST in its current form.
