Pontevedra County Council Oposiciones 2026: Over 60 Positions Announced

Key data

Over 60 public employment positions at the Pontevedra Provincial County Council are at stake starting June 25, 2026. The announcement, published in the BOE through Resolution of June 19, 2026, covers a wide range of professional categories and establishes an application deadline of 20 calendar days that expires in mid-July.

The complete bases were previously published in the Official Bulletin of the Province of Pontevedra on June 8, 2026 and are the reference document for understanding the specific requirements of each position.

What does this announcement establish?

The Pontevedra County Council announces a selective process by examination in free competition to fill positions in different professional categories. Below are all the announced profiles:

The two positions reserved for persons with disabilities correspond specifically to the profile of mid-level translation technician and mid-level general administration technician. For the remaining positions, access is in free competition without specific reservation indicated in the announcement.

Economic and operational impact

From the candidate's perspective, accessing one of these positions means joining the staff of a provincial administration with the remuneration conditions and stability typical of local public employment in Galicia. Senior technical profiles (forest engineer, technical architect, industrial engineer, phytopathologist) typically correspond to A1 or A2 qualification groups, with annual gross remuneration ranging between 30,000 and 45,000 euros depending on supplements in Galician county councils, although exact amounts should be consulted in the bases published in the Official Bulletin of the Province of Pontevedra.

For the County Council itself, this announcement represents a significant renewal and strengthening of its staff in strategic areas: engineering, IT, tourism, translation, and services. The filling of over 60 positions in a single announcement reflects a commitment to stabilizing public employment following consolidation processes promoted by state regulations in recent years.

Who does it affect?

• Citizens with senior technical qualifications (forest engineering, industrial engineering, technical architecture, agricultural sciences/biology for phytopathology) seeking stable public employment in the province of Pontevedra.
• Administrative staff and general administration technicians interested in accessing local public service.
• IT professionals (web programmer, IT technician) seeking stability in the public sector.
• Tourism technicians with training in tourism information and services.
• Translators with mid-level technical profile, especially persons with recognized disability certificate.
• Hospitality and service personnel (kitchen and dining room officers) seeking public employment in special services.
• Persons with recognized disabilities applying for the two specifically reserved positions.

Practical example

A person with an Industrial Engineering degree who resides in the province of Pontevedra and wants to apply for the industrial engineer position at the County Council must act quickly: the 20 calendar day deadline from June 25, 2026 means that the application submission deadline falls approximately on July 15, 2026.

The process would be as follows: consult the complete bases in the Official Bulletin of the Province of Pontevedra (published June 8, 2026) to verify specific requirements for qualifications, experience, and documentation; prepare the application and supporting documentation; and submit it within the deadline. Since this is an examination in free competition, it is not necessary to prove prior connection with the administration.

Similarly, a person with a disability certificate and training in translation can directly apply for the reserved mid-level translation technician position without competing with other applicants in the general free competition.

1. Consult the complete bases in the Official Bulletin of the Province of Pontevedra (publication of June 8, 2026) to understand the specific requirements for qualifications, documentation, and tests for each position.
