Senior Consultant

This role is ideal for highly experienced professionals, particularly retired government servants, with a strong background in Administration, Finance, Accounts, Audit, or Legal affairs. Candidates should possess a Postgraduate degree in a relevant field (or a Bachelor's degree for retired government employees) and demonstrate at least 10-12 years of hands-on experience in government or autonomous bodies. The position is best suited for individuals seeking a contractual role in a prestigious research institution.

This opportunity is not suitable for fresh graduates, individuals with less than 10 years of relevant experience, or those seeking permanent government employment. Candidates looking for job security beyond a five-year contractual tenure or aspiring for direct absorption into a regular government post should not apply, as the role is temporary and co-terminus.

ICMR-NICHR, a part of the Indian Council of Medical Research, offers a reputable environment within a government research institution. While the position is contractual, it provides an opportunity for experienced professionals to contribute their expertise at a senior level, dealing with critical administrative and establishment matters. The experience gained would be valuable for future high-level consulting or contractual roles in the public sector.
