You will manage MBF’s presence across LinkedIn, Instagram, X, and YouTube, develop content calendars and storytelling pieces, support donor-facing communications, and build relationships with media across education, policy, and social impact beats. You will also help grow MBF’s alumni and stakeholder community through newsletters, spotlights, and events.

This role combines content craft with relationship-building. The goal is to ensure MBF’s mission reaches the right audiences — students, donors, partners, and media — with consistency and impact.

We are looking for someone with 3–4 years of hands-on experience in communications, marketing, content, or PR, ideally with an agency background.

STEM Shiksha Foundation is looking for a Regional Program Manager. The role focuses on building hands-on learning environments in engineering colleges and polytechnics where students can design, build, and prototype real-world solutions.

You will work closely with state government departments, college leadership, faculty, and students to set up and run these labs. Your responsibilities will include launching new labs, coordinating with institutions, training faculty and students in tools such as 3D printing, electronics, and prototyping, and ensuring the labs are actively used for projects and workshops.

This role combines program management and technical mentorship. The goal is to ensure that the labs become active spaces for experimentation and problem-solving rather than just equipment rooms.

We are looking for someone with 10–12 years of experience, including 4–5 years working in a makerspace, innovation lab, or similar environment. A technical degree (B.E./B.Tech/Diploma) is required, and experience working with academia, industry, or government partners will be valuable.
