Overview
Immediate opening: HOD Commerce at The Scholars'home in Sirmaur, Himachal Pradesh. Open to both seasoned practitioners and early-career candidates with strong potential. The Scholars'home, established 2004, runs as a senior secondary campus in Sirmaur, Himachal Pradesh — a CBSE-affiliated school. The school believes a strong campus is built on its teachers and works to be a place where faculty want to stay. Details: a high-ownership leadership role. The HOD Commerce leads by example in classrooms, faculty meetings, and parent interactions, while keeping the school's long-term direction in view. Day to day, you will:
- Run faculty meetings, academic reviews, and section-level planning.
- Observe classes, give actionable feedback, follow up on teacher development.
- Approve calendars, assessment papers, and major parent communication.
- Engage with leadership on hiring, budgets, and infrastructure needs.
- Spend time on the floor — corridors, classrooms, labs — to read the school accurately. Candidate requirements:
- 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.
- Comfortable with data — assessments, attendance, faculty metrics.
- A long-term thinker who can also execute well in the short term. Compensation and environment:
- Salary structured fairly across roles (₹10.0 LPA – ₹10.6 LPA).
- A calendar that respects academic delivery and personal time.
- Internal training, peer observation, and external workshops.
- A calm, professional, student-centred campus culture.
- Real backing from the leadership team when it matters. Submit your application here so The Scholars'home can shortlist you alongside the active pool. Strong profiles move to a brief teaching demo and a discussion with the academic head.

How do I make a resume for a CBSE HOD Commerce job?
