2 civil service positions Technical Scale at ULPGC: requirements and deadline for ADE and Economics

Key data

Two civil service career positions at the public Canary Islands university are open to graduates in the economic-business field. The Resolution of June 17, 2026 from ULPGC, published in the Official Gazette on June 25, calls for the selective process to enter the Technical Scale with the highest level of Subgroup A1. For those seeking job stability in university civil service with an economic-financial profile, this call is a concrete opportunity with an immediate deadline.

What does this regulation establish?

The resolution publishes in the Official Gazette the call for a selective process to fill 2 vacant civil service career positions in the Technical Scale of ULPGC. Access is through the general open access system via competitive examination.

The key aspects of the process are:

• Group and Subgroup: Group A, Subgroup A1 — the highest level of Spanish civil service, equivalent to higher university qualification.
• Required qualification: Bachelor's degree or Graduate degree in Economics, Business Administration or Business Administration and Management. No other qualifications are accepted.
• Selection system: Competitive examination in open access. This involves an examination phase (tests) and a competitive phase (merit evaluation).
• Application deadline: 20 working days counted from the day following publication in the Official Gazette, that is, from June 26, 2026.
• Complete regulatory bases: Published in the Official Gazette of the Canary Islands (BOC) no. 120, of June 17, 2026. It is in the BOC where the procedure for submitting applications, the syllabus, merit evaluation criteria and other conditions of the process are detailed.

Publication in the Official Gazette serves to give official publicity at the national level. The governing document of the process is the BOC, which candidates must consult to know all the details of the procedure.

Economic and operational impact

Accessing a civil service career position in Subgroup A1 of a public university means stable remuneration linked to the salary tables of administration and services personnel (PAS) of ULPGC, which include base salary, position supplement and specific supplement set by collective agreement and Canary Islands regional regulations.

From an operational perspective, candidates should note that:

• The 20 working day deadline is short. With holidays and the summer period, the actual margin for preparing and submitting the application may be less than one calendar month.
• The documentation and exact procedure for submitting applications are in the BOC no. 120 of June 17, 2026, not in the Official Gazette. Accessing the BOC is the first essential step.
• The process is competitive examination, which means preparing both the examination tests and gathering and accrediting merits for the competitive phase.

Who does it affect?

• Graduates with Bachelor's degree or Graduate degree in Economics seeking access to university civil service.
• Graduates with Bachelor's degree or Graduate degree in Business Administration in similar situations.
• Graduates with Bachelor's degree or Graduate degree in Business Administration and Management (ADE).
• Professionals in the economic-financial field who wish to stabilize their careers in the public sector.
• Examination candidates already preparing for Subgroup A1 positions in public administrations and who want to expand their options to the Canary Islands university sector.

Candidates with qualifications other than the three indicated cannot apply, even if they are in the economic field (for example, Law or Statistics are not included unless the BOC call specifies otherwise).

Practical example

A 35-year-old economist with a degree in ADE who currently works in the private sector in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria decides to apply for this call. Her immediate roadmap would be:

1. Download BOC no. 120 of June 17, 2026 to read the complete regulations of the process.
2. Verify that her qualification (Degree in ADE) meets the access requirement — in this case, yes.
3. Calculate the deadline: 20 working days from June 26, 2026. Taking into account local and national holidays during the summer period, she must submit her application before that count expires.
4. Prepare the required documentation according to the BOC regulations (application form, qualification accreditation, documentation of merits for the competitive phase, etc.).
5. Submit the application through the channel indicated in the BOC within the deadline.

If she does not submit the application within the 20 working day deadline, she is excluded from the process with no possibility of remedying the deadline.

What should candidates do now?

1. Access BOC no. 120 of June 17, 2026 to read the complete regulations of the selective process. It is the governing document that contains the syllabus, the criteria for the competitive phase and the procedure for submitting applications.
2. Verify compliance with the qualification requirement: only Bachelor's degree or Graduate degree in Economics, Business Administration or ADE are valid.
3. Calculate the application deadline: 20 working days from June 26, 2026. Deduct national and Canary Islands holidays during the period.
4. Prepare merit documentation for the competitive phase in advance: professional experience, training, publications or other merits indicated by the regulations.
5. Submit the application within the deadline through the channel and format established by the BOC regulations. Do not wait until the last day given the summer period.
