For legal professionals seeking stability in public university employment in the Canary Islands, this call is a direct opportunity: the position is a career civil servant, which implies permanent membership in the university's technical body and the guarantees inherent to civil servant status.

What does this regulation establish?

The Resolution of June 17, 2026 from ULPGC calls for a selective process to fill 2 vacant positions in the Technical Scale, Group A, Subgroup A1, through the system of competitive examination in open competition (general access).

The complete bases—which include the syllabus, the merit scale for the competitive phase and the exact application procedure—were published in the Official Bulletin of the Canary Islands (BOC) no. 120, of June 17, 2026. It is essential to consult them directly in the BOC to know all participation requirements and required documentation.

Economic and operational impact

Obtaining a position in the Technical Scale Subgroup A1 means accessing the remuneration corresponding to the highest level of non-directive public service. In the public university sector, these positions entail:

• Base salary corresponding to Group A, Subgroup A1, set by the current General State Budget Law.

• Full job stability as a career civil servant, with access to horizontal and vertical career advancement within the university technical body.
• Contributions and rights of the general Social Security scheme or administrative mutual insurance, as applicable.

From an operational perspective, the call activates a formal selective process that can extend several months from the closure of the application deadline to the final resolution and taking of office.

Who does it affect?

• Law degree holders and graduates who meet the general requirements for access to public service and wish to work in university administration in the Canary Islands.
• Active candidates who are already preparing syllabi for university administration or A1 bodies in the public sector.
• Civil servants from other administrations who want to access ULPGC through open competition (without the possibility of internal promotion in this call, as it is open competition).
• Academies and exam preparation instructors in the Canary Islands who must inform their students about this call.
• HR departments at ULPGC, which will manage the selective process and the incorporation of new civil servants.
