HIL (India) Limited, a government enterprise under the Department of Chemicals and Petrochemicals, has invited offline applications for two contractual positions in New Delhi. The vacancies are for Project Manager and Assistant Project Manager under its Global Environment Facility-funded FARM project. The Project Manager post offers consolidated annual remuneration of up to Rs 16 lakh, while the Assistant Project Manager post carries up to Rs 10 lakh per annum, with a 3 per cent annual increment.

Candidates must hold a PhD or full-time master's degree in Life Sciences, Agricultural Sciences, Agricultural Engineering, agriculture or Biotechnology, with an MBA desirable. The Project Manager requires at least 10 years of experience in sustainable agriculture projects and an age limit of 55 years. The Assistant Project Manager needs five years of experience and an upper age limit of 40 years. The selection process includes screening and a personal interview. Applications must reach the Additional General Manager (HR & Admn.) at the company's Lodhi Road office by November 13.
The notification targets specialists in sustainable agriculture for a project focused on reducing agrochemicals, a niche requirement that narrows the applicant pool. Both posts are contractual until June 2028 or project completion, meaning candidates gain no claim to permanent government employment. The selection committee retains discretion on remuneration, age relaxation and qualifications, which introduces uncertainty for applicants. The November 13 deadline leaves just over two weeks for candidates to compile documents and send applications via Speed Post, courier, registered post or hand delivery.
