2 Senior Communication Technician Positions UV 2026: Requirements and Deadlines

Key data

The Universitat de València announces 2 vacant positions in subgroup A1 of the Senior Communication Technical Scale, content subscale, corresponding to the Public Employment Offer (OPE) of 2023. The official reference is the Resolution of June 16, 2026 (BOE-A-2026-14193), published on June 30, 2026.

The most relevant fact for candidates: the BOE is the official reference for calculating all deadlines, and the application deadline begins the day following that publication, that is, July 1, 2026.

What does this regulation establish?

The resolution announces selective access tests for the Senior Communication Technical Scale of the Universitat de València. The two positions are filled by different systems, but with common exercises:

Although the access systems are different (pure competition vs. competitive examination, where merits are also evaluated), the exercises are unique and are conducted simultaneously for both positions. This means that all applicants compete in the same tests, and the differentiation between systems is applied in the merit evaluation phase of the competitive examination.

The participation requirements are:

• Qualification: University degree or equivalent recognized qualification.
• Valencian: Level C1 certificate issued by the Junta Qualificadora de Coneixements de Valencià (JQCV) or equivalent recognized certificate.
• Exclusion: Those who already belong to the Senior Communication Technical Scale, content subscale, of the Universitat de València cannot participate.

Application submission is conducted exclusively online through the UV electronic office. Applications submitted by any other means (paper, postal mail, in-person registration) will be declared void as a matter of law.

Economic and operational impact

For candidates, accessing an A1 position in university civil service means job stability, remuneration linked to the collective agreement of Administration and Services Personnel (PAS) of the UV and career progression within the Valencian public university system.

For the Universitat de València, this announcement covers 2 vacancies from the OPE 2023, which means these positions have been pending for at least three years. The resolution of the announcement allows regularizing the institutional communication staff with career civil servants at A1 level, the highest in the subgroup of higher education graduates.

From an operational perspective, the selection process has two differentiated phases depending on the position:

• Position by competition: Only the competition phase exercises are evaluated.
• Position by competitive examination: Both the exercises and the merits accredited by the candidate (experience, training, etc.) are evaluated.

Who does it affect?

• University graduates with a degree or equivalent who aspire to stable public employment in the field of institutional communication.
• Professionals with C1 Valencian certificate (JQCV or equivalent) interested in university civil service.
• Candidates who already work at the UV as temporary or interim staff in communication roles and want to consolidate their position as career civil servants.
• Human resources advisors and HR managers in the public university sector who must inform their teams about new announcements.
• Express exclusion: Civil servants who already belong to the Senior Communication Technical Scale, content subscale, of the UV — cannot apply.

Practical example

Imagine you are a journalist with a degree in Audiovisual Communication, you have the C1 Valencian certificate issued by the JQCV and have been working as a communication technician in a private company for 4 years. This announcement allows you to apply for both positions simultaneously.

When you submit your online application through the UV electronic office, you automatically participate in the process for both positions (competition and competitive examination), since the exercises are unique. If you pass the competition phase, your 4 years of professional experience could be evaluated as merit in the competitive examination phase of the second position, increasing your chances of obtaining one of the two vacancies.

If instead you submit your application on paper or by postal mail, it will be declared void as a matter of law, leaving you out of the process with no possibility of correction.

What should candidates do now?

1. Verify requirements before applying: Confirm that you have a university degree (or equivalent) and the C1 Valencian language certificate (JQCV or equivalent). Without both requirements, your application will not be admitted.
2. Access the UV electronic office: The application is submitted exclusively online. Locate the corresponding procedure in the electronic office of the Universitat de València and prepare your digital certificate or electronic identification system.
3. Calculate the application deadline: The deadline begins on July 1, 2026 (day following publication in the BOE). Consult the complete announcement in the BOE to know the exact duration of the application deadline.
4. Prepare merit documentation: If you are applying for the competitive examination position, gather from now the documents that accredit your professional experience and training, as they will be evaluated in the competitive examination phase.
5. Confirm you are not excluded: If you already belong to the Senior Communication Technical Scale, content subscale, of the UV, you cannot participate in this announcement.
6. Follow the BOE as the official reference: All deadlines in the process (applications, publication of lists, exam dates) are calculated from BOE publications, not from internal UV communications.
