Economic and operational impact
The position of Director of the ISM is one of the most relevant in the organizational structure of the Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration. Level 30 is the maximum in the scale of positions in the General State Administration, which implies both maximum managerial responsibility and the highest complementary remuneration in the system.
The specific supplement of 32,642.26 € is added to the basic remuneration of subgroup A1 (base salary and seniority bonuses), which places the total remuneration of the position in a range significantly higher than the average of positions in the State Administration.
From an operational perspective, the free appointment system implies that the appointment can be revoked at any time by the Administration, unlike positions obtained through merit competition. This factor is relevant for any candidate evaluating the opportunity cost of leaving their current position.
