IGRUA Assistant Aerodrome Officer Recruitment 2026: Overview
Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Uran Akademi (IGRUA), an autonomous body under the Ministry of Civil Aviation, is hiring Assistant Aerodrome Officers for its flying-training operations. The notice names Fursatganj Airfield in Amethi, Uttar Pradesh, and also allows placement with flying-training detachments at other bases. You would join on a fixed-term contract within the academy’s aviation training setup.
Service Conditions and Caveats
- Contract term: The appointment lasts 11 months initially and may be extended. It gives you no right to a regular appointment or permanent absorption.
- Place of work: The main campus is at Fursatganj Airfield, but your assignment may be at another flying-training base. Consider this posting flexibility before deciding whether the position suits you.
- Accommodation: IGRUA offers quarters or accommodation only when available. You should not treat housing as a guaranteed part of the appointment.
- Training and probation: The application declaration says you must follow IGRUA’s training or probation rules. Employment conditions follow the academy’s policies.
- Accuracy: False information or withheld facts can lead to rejection or termination at any stage. Your declaration covers both the application and your later service.
- Recruitment changes: IGRUA may cancel, limit or change the recruitment process without giving a reason. Sending an application does not create a right to appointment.
- Conduct and disputes: Attempts to influence the recruitment lead to disqualification. Any disputes fall under the jurisdiction of courts in Lucknow.
Application Submission Notes
Send your application only by email to career@igrua.gov.in, combining the attachments into a single PDF. Use the subject APPLICATION – ASSISTANT AERODROME OFFICER IGRUA/ADVT/32/2026 so your application identifies the advertised position clearly.
Keep your email address active: where an online interview is arranged, IGRUA says it will send the joining link to your supplied address a day before the interview.
