The Airport Authority's primary mission is to administer and maintain the Fort Wayne International Airport (FWA).  The Airport Authority consists of four departments: Administration, Public Safety, Maintenance and Custodial. We have a total of 59 full-time positions and one part time.  

The Airport Authority hires only for its own positions.  When the Airport Authority has an opening we will typically advertise in the Fort Wayne Newspapers and post the opening on our website. 

This is an equal employment opportunity.

The Airport Authority also manages the Smith Field Airport.  See website www.smdairport.com for contact and employment information.

The Airport Authority has a tenant relationship with many other employers (i.e., airlines, car rentals, passenger screening, control tower, restaurant, gift shop, fixed base operators, cargo carriers, and other employers).  All these employers do their own hiring and must be contacted individually.

If you are interested in working for an airline (counter person, luggage handlers, flight attendant, etc), contact the airlines' website for employment opportunities.  Using an internet search engine, search for “airlines” and the most common carriers can easily be found.  

The federal government hires for the passenger screening and control tower positions.  See website http://www.tsa.gov/ for additional information on passenger screening employment.  See website http://www.usajobs.opm.gov/ for additional information regarding federal employment opportunities including air traffic control positions.  

See the website www.faa.gov/jobs/ for information on the air traffic control and other federal government airport employment opportunities.
