The deadline for submitting applications begins the day after publication in the BOE, that is, September 12, 2026, and extends for 20 business days. Acting quickly is key: gathering documentation, reviewing the requirements in the provincial bases and submitting the application within the deadline are the three immediate steps for any applicant.

What does this call establish?

The resolution announces, through the system of competitive examination in open competition, the following Senior Technician positions in Planning and Management at the Island Council of Tenerife:

The complete bases of the call —which include participation requirements, syllabus, examination scoring and evaluation criteria for the examination phase— were published in the Official Bulletin of the Province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, no. 105, of September 2, 2026. It is essential to consult that provincial bulletin to know all the details of the selection process.

Open competition means that any applicant who meets the general and specific requirements established in the bases can apply, without reserved positions for internal promotion or other special categories in this specific call.

Economic and operational impact

For applicants, obtaining one of these 11 positions means joining the staff of the Island Council of Tenerife as a career civil servant in the Special Administration scale. This entails job stability, remuneration according to the Cabildo's salary tables for this group and access to the Social Security system for public officials.

From an operational perspective, candidates must bear in mind that the process is a competitive examination, which means that the final score combines the results of the examination phase (theoretical and/or practical tests on the syllabus) with the evaluation of merits in the competition phase (professional experience, training, etc.), according to the criteria detailed in the provincial bases.

For social and environmental organizations in Tenerife, the incorporation of these technicians into the Cabildo may have implications for project management, contracts and collaborations with the island administration in both branches.
