Economic and operational impact
For candidates, accessing a position of General Administration Technician at the Madrid City Council means joining a career civil servant position with remuneration regulated by local public service regulations. The Economic Branch involves functions linked to budget management, accounting, public procurement or audit, areas with high internal demand in large city councils.
For the City Council itself, filling these 19 positions responds to the need to strengthen economic-financial areas, in a context where the management of public funds and spending control are priorities.
From an operational perspective, candidates must keep in mind that all subsequent announcements of the selection process (lists of admitted candidates, exam dates, results) will be published in accordance with what is established in the BOAM no. 10147 bases, not necessarily in the BOE. It is essential to follow the official channel indicated in the bases to avoid missing key communications in the process.

- People who wish to access public employment at the Madrid City Council, especially with an economic-financial profile.
- Graduates in Economics, Business Administration, Law, Business Sciences or other qualifications that meet the requirements set out in BOAM no. 10147.
- Active opposition candidates who are already preparing syllabuses for local administration with economic branch.
- Civil servants from other administrations who want to compete in free competition at the Madrid City Council.
