IIMK Academic Associate Kochi Campus Recruitment 2026

IIMK Academic Associate Recruitment 2026: Overview

Indian Institute of Management Kozhikode (IIMK) is hiring Academic Associates on contract for the Undergraduate Programme Office at its Kochi campus in Kerala. This is a rolling advertisement — IIMK accepts applications all through the year and processes them in batches, so there is no single closing date to race against.

The role sits right next to the faculty. You will help with course material, attendance, grade sheets, exam invigilation and research support, which makes it a good fit if you want hands-on exposure to how a top business school runs its classrooms. Any graduate or postgraduate with the right experience can apply — the degree can be in any discipline.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Contract term: The engagement is purely contractual for one year. Any extension depends on the institute's needs and your performance.
• Skills you must bring: Good English communication and comfort with MS Office, the internet and online meeting tools such as Zoom.
• Joining: Candidates who can join immediately are preferred.
• Shortlisting: Applications are screened first, and only shortlisted candidates are interviewed. Interview details reach you by email, so keep checking your inbox and the IIMK website.
• Verification: If selected, your certificates and experience are checked at the time of joining. Being found ineligible at any stage cancels your candidature.
• Extra duties: The duty list is not exhaustive; you may be given new academic or administrative tasks by the Kozhikode or Kochi office.
• Canvassing: Any form of canvassing leads to disqualification.

Application Submission Notes

You apply through the IIMK Job Portal: register with your name and email, then log in and complete the form for Academic Associate on contract (Kochi Campus). Upload your photograph, mark lists and certificates from SSLC onwards, experience certificate, CV and signature in the formats the portal asks for — an application missing any of these is rejected outright.
