Manager Media and PR

This role is ideal for highly experienced media professionals with a strong background in Malayalam television news, particularly those with a track record of investigative journalism and senior editorial roles. Candidates should possess a Postgraduate Diploma in Journalism, excellent desk skills, and a robust network within media and political circles in Kerala. Proficiency in Malayalam and English is essential. This full-time, on-site contract position at Thiruvananthapuram offers a consolidated salary and annual renewal based on performance.

Individuals with less than 10 years of experience in Malayalam television news, or without a Postgraduate Diploma in Journalism, will not be suitable. Candidates lacking senior editorial experience (Chief Reporter/Special Correspondent level) or a proven track record in breaking exclusive stories should also reconsider. Those seeking permanent government employment might find the contractual nature of this role a dealbreaker.

Kerala Academy for Skills Excellence (KASE), a Government of Kerala Undertaking, offers a reputable platform within the state's skill development sector. While this is a contractual role, it provides an opportunity to work at a senior level in a state-backed organization. The prestige stems from contributing to a government undertaking and leveraging extensive media expertise for public communication. Long-term growth would depend on contract renewals and potential future opportunities within the state government ecosystem.
