Junior Executive

This role is ideal for fresh graduates or those with up to 2 years of experience, particularly in Intellectual Property (IP) or academic project management. Candidates should possess strong Excel skills, accounting knowledge, and familiarity with patent databases and related software (MS Office/Google Workspace, CRM/IPMS). The position offers an opportunity to work in a dynamic research environment within a prestigious institution.

Individuals seeking a permanent government position should not apply, as this is a temporary contract-based role with no guarantee of extension or regularization. Those without a graduate degree or the specified technical skills (especially in patent/IP management) may find the role challenging. The single vacancy also means competition will be high.

Working at IIT Madras, a renowned institution of national importance, offers significant professional prestige and exposure, especially within the Office of Industrial Consultancy and Sponsored Research. While the role is temporary, it provides valuable experience in a specialized field (Technology Transfer/IP), which can be a strong foundation for future career growth in research administration or IP management sectors.
