The Consell Insular de Mallorca announces 4 Senior Computer Science Engineering positions through competitive examination, published in the BOE on 16 September 2026 (reference BOE-A-2026-19286). The complete bases were published in the BOIB no. 98 of 6 August 2026 and were rectified on 25 August.
The call is framed within the Special Administration scale, Technical subscale, Senior class, which places these positions at the highest level of the technical career within the local administration of Mallorca. It is a direct opportunity for access or consolidation in the Balearic public sector for professionals with a degree in Senior Computer Science Engineering.
What does this call establish?
The call establishes the provision of four permanent civil service positions at the Consell Insular de Mallorca through the competitive examination system. This system combines an examination phase (knowledge tests) with a competition phase (merit evaluation), although the exact weight of each phase should be consulted in the BOIB bases.
| Competition | Positions | Eligible candidates |
|---|---|---|
| Open competition | 3 | Any graduate in Senior Computer Science Engineering who meets the general requirements for access to the civil service |
| Internal promotion | 1 | Civil servants already active in the Consell Insular de Mallorca who meet the specific promotion requirements |
The application deadline is 20 calendar days counted from the day after publication in the BOE, that is, from 17 September 2026. Applicants must consult the complete bases published in the BOIB no. 98 of 6 August 2026 to know the complete syllabus, qualification requirements, merit scale and registration procedure.
Economic and operational impact
For candidates, obtaining a Senior Computer Science Engineer position in local administration means job stability, remuneration linked to the local civil service agreement and access to a professional career in the Balearic public sector.
For the Consell Insular de Mallorca, the incorporation of four senior technical computer specialists strengthens the organization's internal technological capacity, with direct impact on the modernization of services and information systems management of the Instituto Mallorquín de Asuntos Sociales.
From an operational perspective, candidates should take into account:
- The application deadline is 20 calendar days, with no possibility of ordinary extension.
- The bases rectified on 25 August 2026 are the current ones: any discrepancy with the original version of BOIB no. 98 is resolved by the rectification.
- The internal promotion competition is independent of the open competition: civil servants in active service who opt for promotion do not compete with open competition applicants.
Who does it affect?
- Graduates in Senior Computer Science Engineering seeking access to local civil service in Mallorca (open competition).
- Active civil servants of the Consell Insular de Mallorca with appropriate qualifications aspiring to internal promotion.
- Exam preparation instructors and academies specializing in computer science and local administration in the Balearic Islands.
- HR departments of technology companies that may see qualified candidates opt for the stability of the public sector.
Practical example
A computer science engineer with a senior degree who currently works in the private sector in Palma de Mallorca decides to apply for the open competition. He has 20 calendar days from 17 September 2026 to register his application. His first step is to download the complete bases from BOIB no. 98 (with the rectification of 25 August) to verify that his specific qualification is recognized, review the examination phase syllabus and calculate the merits he can accredit in the competition phase.
On the other hand, a civil servant of the Consell Insular de Mallorca with a lower category and a degree in Senior Computer Science Engineering can apply exclusively to the internal promotion position, without competing with external candidates from the open competition, which gives him a competitive advantage by competing in a separate process with only one position available.
What should candidates do now?
- Verify the exact deadline: The 20-day calendar deadline begins on 17 September 2026. Calculate the closing date and mark it on your calendar.
- Download the BOIB no. 98 bases: Consult the rectified version of 25 August 2026 on the official BOIB. It is the document that governs the entire process: requirements, syllabus, merit scale and procedure.
- Check the qualifying qualification: Verify that your Senior Computer Science Engineering degree is recognized in the bases. If you have a foreign qualification, check if prior homologation is necessary.
- Decide which competition to apply for: If you are an active civil servant of the Consell Insular, assess whether the internal promotion competition (1 position, less competition) or the open competition (3 positions) is more convenient for you.
- Prepare the documentation: Gather the accreditable merits for the competition phase (experience, training, languages, etc.) according to the scale published in the bases.
- Submit your application within the deadline: Follow the registration procedure indicated in the bases. Do not wait until the last day to avoid technical or administrative problems.
