Sainik School in Purulia, West Bengal is on the lookout for a HOD Commerce. The school values educators who care about classroom culture as much as curriculum delivery.

  • Senior educator with a balanced view of academics and operations.
  • Proven ability to mentor teachers and improve outcomes over time.
  • Strong stakeholder management — board, parents, regulators, vendors.

  • A long-term thinker who can also execute well in the short term. Why join us:
  • Predictable, on-time monthly compensation (₹7.5 LPA – ₹21.0 LPA).
  • Reasonable workload with planned holidays per the calendar.
  • Real ownership of your subject/function from day one.
  • A leadership team that listens, supports, and gives credit.
  • A campus that respects educators as professionals. Apply now using this listing, and your CV reaches the Sainik School hiring team within minutes. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis; expect a response inside one working week.
