Graduates and degree holders in Law with a vocation for public employment have a new opportunity at the University of Cádiz: a position in the Technical Scale of University Management, with destination in the General Secretariat, convened through the Resolution of October 8, 2026 published in the BOE on October 16, 2026. The call is covered by the Public Employment Offer (OEP) of 2023, authorized by the Junta de Andalucía.
The selective system is competitive examination in free access, which means that any citizen who meets the requirements can apply, without needing to be a previous employee of the institution.
What does this regulation establish?
The resolution convenes the selective process to fill one position in the Technical Scale of University Management at the University of Cádiz. The structural elements of the process are as follows:
| Element | Detail |
|---|---|
| Scale | Technical Scale of University Management |
| Number of positions | 1 |
| Access | Free (general access) |
| Destination | General Secretariat, University of Cádiz |
| Required qualification | Degree or Bachelor's in Law |
| Selective system | Competitive examination (two phases) |
| Phase 1 | Opposition phase (max. duration 135 working days) |
| Phase 2 | Competition phase (merit evaluation) |
| Application submission | Exclusively electronic, via UCA electronic office, with digital certificate |
| Examination fees | 30 euros |
| Regulatory basis | OEP 2023, authorized by the Junta de Andalucía |
A relevant aspect is that the application cannot be submitted on paper or in person: the UCA electronic office with digital certificate is the only valid channel. Candidates who do not have a digital certificate must obtain one before starting the process.
Economic and operational impact
For the candidate, the direct cost of participation is 30 euros in examination fees. However, there are full exemptions for the following groups:
- Persons in a situation of unemployment
- Persons with disability equal to or greater than 33%
- Victims of terrorism
- Victims of gender-based violence
- Members of large families
Beyond the cost of the fee, the candidate must assess the preparation time and the horizon of the process: the opposition phase has a maximum duration of 135 working days, which is approximately 27 weeks or just over six months from when that phase begins. This is followed by the subsequent competition phase.
From an institutional perspective, this call covers a need in the General Secretariat of UCA, a body of high administrative relevance in any public university.
Who does it affect?
- Graduates and degree holders in Law seeking access to stable university public employment.
- Active opposition candidates who are already preparing for positions in university administration or the Junta de Andalucía and want to expand their options.
- Professionals in the legal-administrative field interested in reorienting their career towards the university public sector.
- Persons in a situation of unemployment with a degree in Law, who also benefit from the exemption of the examination fee.
- Persons with recognized disability equal to or greater than 33% who meet the qualification requirement.
Practical example
A graduate in Law from the University of Seville, currently unemployed, decides to apply for this call. Being unemployed, she is exempt from paying the 30 euros in examination fees. She accesses the UCA electronic office with her digital certificate (previously obtained through the FNMT) and submits her application within the established deadline.
If she passes the opposition phase —which can last up to 135 working days— she advances to the competition phase, where her merits are evaluated. If she obtains the position, her destination will be the General Secretariat of the University of Cádiz, joining the Technical Scale of University Management.
A candidate who must pay the fee will pay only 30 euros, one of the lowest amounts typical in university public employment calls.
What should candidates do now?
- Verify the qualification requirement: Confirm that you have a Degree or Bachelor's in Law officially recognized in Spain.
- Obtain or renew the digital certificate: The application is exclusively electronic through the UCA electronic office. Without a valid digital certificate it is not possible to apply.
- Check if you are entitled to fee exemption: Unemployment, disability equal to or greater than 33%, victim of terrorism or gender-based violence, or large family exempt from paying the 30 euros.
- Consult the full text of the call: Review the specific bases published in the BOE (BOE-A-2026-21593) to learn about the syllabus, the criteria for the competition phase and the exact deadlines for submitting applications.
- Plan your preparation: Keep in mind that the opposition phase can extend up to 135 working days, and that the merit competition phase follows.
- Submit the application within the deadline: Once the registration period opens, process it through the UCA electronic office before it closes. Applications submitted after the deadline are not accepted.
