AAI Consultant Recruitment 2026 — 10 Posts, Apply by 06 Aug (Delhi)

Airports Authority of India (AAI), acting through EdCIL (India) Limited, opened applications on 24 July 2026 for 10 consultant positions across three directorates. The breakdown is 5 Senior Consultant (Law) posts under Advertisement No. 11/2026/CHQ/CN, 3 Corporate Communications consultancies under Advertisement No. 01/2026/CHQ/CN covering Content Writer, Graphic Designer and Video Editor, and 2 Clinical Psychologist posts under Advertisement No. 10/2026/CHQ/CN. Four of the Law posts sit at Corporate Headquarters, Safdarjung Airport, New Delhi, with the fifth at Regional Headquarters, Northern Region. These are senior specialist engagements rather than entry-level government jobs, and the pay reflects that. Senior Consultants in Law and Clinical Psychology draw ₹1,50,000 per month all inclusive, while the three Corporate Communications consultants and the Clinical Psychologist draw ₹1,20,000 per month. Engagement is contractual: one year for Law and Corporate Communications, extendable annually up to a cumulative five years for the Law post, and three years for the Clinical Psychologist positions. Leave accrues at 1.5 days per completed month and cannot be carried forward or encashed, and no TA or DA is paid for attending the selection process. The Clinical Psychologist roles are unusual and worth understanding before applying. Both work with Air Traffic Control Officers, covering selection screening alongside the medical and HR teams, mental status examinations, psychological testing, fitness evaluation for safety-sensitive duties, and participation in the Peer Support Programme under DGCA guidelines. Selection for all 10 posts rests on academic qualifications, experience, document verification and interview, with preliminary shortlisting done from documents uploaded with the online form. Apply at the AAI recruitment portal before 06 August 2026 at 23:59 hrs. Candidates applying for more than one post must file a separate application for each.
