17 Local Police Positions in Eivissa 2026: requirements, deadline and how to apply

Key data

The Eivissa City Council launches one of the largest selection processes on the island: 17 Local Police Agent positions in open competition, with bases published in the Official Gazette of Illes Balears on August 1, 2026 and official call in the BOE on August 8, 2026 (reference BOE-A-2026-17309).

Open competition access means that no positions are reserved for internal promotion or specific groups: any person who can prove the requirements set out in the bases can compete on equal terms. This significantly expands the number of potential candidates compared to restricted calls.

What does this call establish?

The Resolution of August 3, 2026 from the Eivissa City Council formalizes the call to fill 17 Local Police Agent positions. The positions are classified under the Special Administration scale, Special Services subscale, which is the standard classification for local security bodies in Spanish Public Administration.

The essential elements of the call are as follows:

• Selection process: open competitive examination.
• Regulatory bases: published in the Official Gazette of Illes Balears (BOIB) on August 1, 2026. The bases contain the specific access requirements, complete syllabus and phases of the selection process.
• Application deadline: 20 business days counted from the day following publication in the BOE, that is, starting August 9, 2026.
• Process communications: all subsequent publications (lists of admitted candidates, test dates, results) will be made in accordance with what is provided in the bases themselves.

To learn the specific requirements for qualifications, age, physical fitness and necessary documentation, it is essential to consult the complete bases published in the BOIB of August 1, 2026, as the BOE call expressly refers to that document.

Operational impact and opportunity

For the Eivissa City Council, filling 17 Local Police Agent positions represents a substantial reinforcement of the security workforce in a municipality with high seasonal tourist pressure. The open competition modality allows incorporating external profiles with specific experience or training, without limiting itself to internal promotion.

For candidates, this is an opportunity for stable public employment on the island of Eivissa, with the remuneration conditions and career prospects of the Special Administration scale, Special Services subscale. The number of positions convened—17—is significant in the context of Local Police competitive examinations in the Balearic Islands, where calls are usually of smaller volume.

The deadline of 20 business days from August 9, 2026 is tight, especially during the summer period. Interested candidates must act quickly to gather the documentation required in the bases before the deadline closes.

Who does it affect?

• People wishing to apply for a Local Police Agent position at the Eivissa City Council (Illes Balears).
• Candidates for Local Police competitive examinations in the Balearic Islands seeking open competition positions.
• Candidates with ongoing preparation for local security bodies who want to expand their options on the island of Eivissa.
• Competitive examination preparation academies and training centers working with Local Police aspirants in Illes Balears.
• Human resources advisors in the public sector who manage selection processes or support candidates in public employment calls.

Practical example

A candidate residing in Eivissa who meets the requirements of the bases (qualifications, age, physical fitness and other conditions published in the BOIB of August 1, 2026) decides to apply for the call. Publication in the BOE occurs on August 8, 2026, so the application deadline starts on August 9, 2026.

They have 20 business days to gather and submit their application. Since August includes holidays and the summer period may reduce the operational capacity of municipal offices, the candidate must calculate precisely the actual deadline by counting only business days from August 9, excluding national, regional and local holidays in Eivissa.

Once the deadline closes, the process continues according to the phases and schedule established in the BOIB bases: publication of lists of admitted and excluded candidates, conducting the competitive examination tests and final resolution. All these communications will be published in the media provided for in the bases themselves, so the candidate must remain alert to these publications to not miss any procedure.

What should candidates do now?

1. Consult the complete bases in the BOIB (August 1, 2026): the bases contain the access requirements, required documentation, syllabus and process phases. They are the reference document, not the BOE call.
2. Verify compliance with all requirements: check qualifications, age, physical fitness and any other specific requirement before starting the application.
3. Calculate the submission deadline: the deadline is 20 business days from August 9, 2026. Count precisely, excluding national, regional and local holidays in Eivissa.
4. Gather required documentation in advance: the summer period may slow down obtaining certificates or official documents. Start procedures as soon as possible.
5. Submit the application within the deadline: once the deadline closes, applications are not accepted after the deadline. Confirm the submission channel (in-person, electronic office) as indicated in the bases.
6. Follow process publications: lists of admitted candidates, test dates and results will be published as provided in the bases. Stay alert to the media indicated in the BOIB to not miss any notification.
