RITES Electrical Manager Recruitment 2026 - 2 Posts

RITES Limited, a Navratna Government of India enterprise, has issued Vacancy Circular VC No. 13/26(D) for Electrical Manager-level posts on deputation / immediate absorption basis. The posts are for various RITES projects, and the selected official can be posted anywhere in India or abroad as per project requirement. This is mainly for serving railway officials, so private-sector applicants without the required railway service route should not treat it as an open direct recruitment.

Tenure note: The normal deputation tenure is 3 years, and it can be extended depending on project requirement and performance. The circular also notes that two electrical posts were advertised earlier under VC No. 03/26(D), but the posts remained vacant because the selected applicant could not be relieved by the parent organisation.
