RITES Limited, the Navratna public sector engineering consultancy under the Ministry of Railways known for its work across rail, airport, and infrastructure consulting, has opened online applications for three Assistant Manager (Civil Engineer / Airports) posts. This is a specialised recruitment aimed squarely at civil engineers who already have hands-on airport-sector experience, particularly in airfield pavement design and detailed estimate preparation — a niche skill set that RITES relies on heavily for its airport consultancy assignments across India and abroad.
With a wide pay band and a formal written-test-based selection process, RITES Assistant Manager Recruitment 2026 offers a genuine PSU career path for civil engineers looking to specialise in airport infrastructure. The sections below cover the exact eligibility bar, the fee structure by category, the tentative written test date, and how to complete the online application before the deadline.

This experience requirement makes the post unsuitable for fresh civil engineering graduates without airport-sector exposure. The maximum age limit is 32 years, with age relaxations available for reserved and special categories: 5 years for SC/ST candidates, 3 years for OBC-NCL candidates, 5 years for candidates with J&K domicile, 10 years for Persons with Benchmark Disability, and 5 years for existing RITES employees applying internally.
