For candidates, the position offers access to stable public employment in a municipality in the province of Valencia, with the remuneration and career conditions typical of mid-level technician groups in Local Administration.

Before that date, they must submit their application and provide evidence of the merits that will be evaluated in the competitive phase according to the scoring criteria published in BOP of Valencia no. 151 of August 10, 2026.
