IIT Delhi Sr. Project Assistant Recruitment 2026 (1 Post)

This role is ideally suited for administrative professionals holding an M.A. degree with a minimum of 55% marks and possessing at least 5 years of dedicated experience in office management within a government or educational institution.

Essential technical skills including basic HTML/CSS knowledge, experience with CMS platforms (Joomla/WordPress), and advanced proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, cloud-based applications) are also critical. This project-based, contractual position at a premier institution like IIT Delhi offers valuable experience for those looking for fixed-term engagement in a dynamic research environment.

Individuals lacking the stipulated minimum 5 years of relevant administrative experience or the mandatory M.A. degree will not be considered. Aspirants without the required technical proficiencies in HTML/CSS, CMS platforms, or comprehensive MS Office skills should refrain from applying.

Working as a Sr. Project Assistant at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, a globally recognized institution, offers significant prestige and exposure to a high-calibre academic and research ecosystem. While the position is contractual and tied to a specific project, the experience gained here is highly valuable and can serve as a strong credential for future opportunities in research administration or similar roles within government and academic sectors. Career progression is primarily project-dependent, but the institutional reputation enhances professional standing.
