Senior Project Officer

This role is ideal for highly specialized candidates holding a PhD (awarded or submitted) in Population Studies, Demography, Social Sciences, Public Health, or related fields. The candidate must have a strong academic writing background, evidenced by at least two peer-reviewed publications as a first author, and a minimum of two years of experience in women's health research. Proficiency in reference management software and strong communication skills are crucial.

Individuals without a PhD in the specified disciplines, those lacking a demonstrated publication record as a first author, or candidates with less than two years of direct experience in women's health research should not apply. Poor English communication and writing skills would also be a significant disqualifier.

The International Institute for Population Sciences (IIPS) is a Deemed-to-be-University with a strong reputation in demographic research, offering a valuable opportunity to contribute to a significant project ('SAHELI: Study and Action on Hysterectomy'). While the position is temporary (6 months, likely extendable) and project-based, it provides excellent exposure and experience within a niche, impactful area of public health research under a prestigious institution.
