IIT Roorkee Project Attendant Recruitment 2026

IIT Roorkee Project Attendant Recruitment 2026: Overview

Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee (IIT Roorkee) is recruiting a Project Attendant for administrative and technical support in its Department of Humanities and Social Sciences. The appointment supports the Gates Foundation sponsored project Research on Public Finance, Revenue Mobilization and Economic Growth, led by Principal Investigator Dr. Manish Kumar Singh.

This is a contractual project appointment at Roorkee with an office-support and coordination focus. The notice groups purchasing, records, correspondence, event arrangements and manpower support within the same appointment, so your work would support the project team across several connected administrative activities.

Service Conditions and Caveats

• Project tenure: The initial engagement lasts 12 months. The notice allows an extension of up to 12 months, so you should treat any extension as a possibility rather than an assured continuation.
• Equal-merit preference: SC/ST applicants and women receive preference when qualifications and experience are equal. This condition applies to the comparison of applicants described in the notice.
• Interview expenses: The institute will not pay travel or daily allowance for attending the interview. You will need to account for these expenses yourself if you attend.

Application Submission Notes

Your application goes by email to mks@hs.iitr.ac.in, the address of the Principal Investigator in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences. Address your application to the investigator responsible for this sponsored project at IIT Roorkee.

Interview communication will go to shortlisted applicants after the institute screens the applications. The notice says those applicants will receive the interview details separately.
