Senior Consultant & Young Professional

This recruitment is ideal for experienced public health professionals and data scientists, particularly those with a strong background in maternal, newborn, and child health research. The Senior Consultant role suits medical graduates with extensive experience (12+ years) or retired government employees, seeking leadership in project implementation. The Young Professional role is for recent post-graduates in statistics, data science, or health informatics with at least 3 years of experience, keen on data management and analysis in a research setting. Both roles are project-based, temporary, and require a commitment to public health outcomes.

Individuals seeking permanent government employment should not apply, as these are temporary, contractual positions tied to a specific project duration. Candidates without the minimum required post-qualification experience (12 years for Senior Consultant, 3 years for Young Professional) or specific educational backgrounds (MBBS/BDS for Senior Consultant; Post Graduate in relevant quantitative fields for Young Professional) will not be eligible. Those uncomfortable with online application processes via Google Forms may also find it challenging.

Working with the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR), a premier national body for biomedical research, offers significant prestige and exposure to critical public health projects. While the roles are temporary and project-based, they provide valuable experience in high-impact areas like neonatal mortality reduction, contributing to national health objectives. This can enhance a professional's resume, opening doors for future opportunities in research, public health, and governmental organizations, despite not being a path to permanent government service.
