Research Associate

This role is ideal for highly motivated individuals with a postgraduate/Master's degree in Management, Law, Economics, Public Policy, Social Sciences, or a related field. Candidates with strong research, analytical, and writing skills, who are eager to contribute to academic publications and case development at a prestigious institution, will find this opportunity rewarding. Those with prior research or writing experience in academic or professional settings are particularly well-suited.

Individuals without a postgraduate/Master's degree in the specified disciplines should not apply. Those seeking a permanent government position or immediate long-term employment should note this is initially a one-year contractual role. Candidates who lack strong analytical and English writing skills, or who are uncomfortable with extensive research tasks and travel, may find this role unsuitable.

Working as a Research Associate at the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA) offers immense prestige and a significant boost to an academic or professional career. IIMA is one of India's leading management institutes, and this role provides exposure to cutting-edge research, faculty collaboration, and contributes to high-impact publications through the Cyril Shroff-IIMA GC Leadership Academy. While initially contractual, performance-based extensions and the invaluable experience gained provide strong long-term career growth prospects in academia, research, or policy-making.
