Successful applicants will be placed in various departments such as human resources, finance, procurement, administration, IT, corporate affairs, security, engineering, and airport operations.

Each intern will be paired with mentors and supervisors who will offer guidance and monitor their development throughout the program.

KAA has also re-advertised 40 positions for Apron Controllers, who will undergo a one-year structured on-the-job training program. Candidates who demonstrate strong performance during the training may be considered for permanent roles, subject to the Authority’s staffing needs.
