Skill Training Manager

This role is ideal for individuals holding a Master's degree in Management, Education, Skill Development, or a related field, coupled with 5-6 years of experience in training coordination, learning & development, or skill development programs. Candidates with a background in educational institutions, NGOs, or development sectors, possessing strong organizational, communication, and presentation skills, who are seeking a contractual opportunity within a prestigious academic setting, would find this position highly suitable. The role is well-suited for those looking to contribute to skill-building initiatives and work autonomously.

Candidates who do not possess a Master's degree or lack the minimum 5 years of relevant experience should not apply. Individuals looking for permanent government employment will find this contractual position (initially for two years) unsuitable. Those who are unwilling to work in Mumbai or prefer roles without significant coordination and administrative responsibilities in training program execution may also find this role less appealing.

The Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) is a highly reputed Deemed University under the Ministry of Education, Government of India. Working as a Skill Training Manager at TISS, even on a contractual basis, offers significant institutional prestige and valuable experience in the social sciences and skill development sector. This role provides an excellent platform for professional growth within academic and development circles, enhancing one's profile for future opportunities in education, training, and capacity-building initiatives, both nationally and internationally. While a single post, the association with TISS holds considerable weight.
