The Baix Empordà County Council has approved the rules and the call for a temporary job bank to cover technical management needs at the Tramuntana Occupational Center, through a competitive examination process.

The deadline for submitting applications is 10 business days starting from the day after the publication of the rules in the gazette.

One vacancy since September 1st

The job bank will serve to temporarily cover the position of Technical Director of the Tramuntana Center, vacant since September 1, 2026, due to the voluntary leave with reservation of position of its holder. The labor characteristics of the position are:

• Working day of 37.50 hours per week (100% of the ordinary working day).

Requirements and submission of applications

Applicants must meet, among others, the following conditions:

Applications shall be submitted preferably through the Convoca platform (baixemporda.convoca.online) or in person at the General Registry of the County Council, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. The examination fees are 20 euros for assimilated positions of group A.

Seventy points for the examination and thirty for the merit phase

The selection process is divided into an examination phase of 70 points and a merit phase of 30 points:

• First exercise: Catalan language test (pass or fail) and, if applicable, Spanish.
• Theoretical exercise: maximum 20 points, eliminatory, with a minimum of 10 points.
• Practical exercise: maximum 40 points, eliminatory, with a minimum of 20 points.
• Competency-based interview: 10 points, non-eliminatory.
• Competition: professional experience (maximum 20 points) and training (maximum 10 points).

The selection body will be composed of a senior technician from the Comarcal Council (presidency, group A1), two members —one from the same Council and one specialist in the subject from another local administration— and the Secretary of the Council, who will act with a voice but without a vote; the linguistic normalization technician will also participate as an advisor.

Duration and operation of the pool

The pool will have a duration of two years from the day after the presidential decree that establishes it, and will be considered exhausted when there is no person available to accept an offer. The call will be made by email and telephone, with a minimum of two contact attempts; if there is no confirmation within 48 hours, the next candidate on the list will be called. Rejecting an offer entails moving to the last place in the pool and, the second time, definitive exclusion, except in cases of maternity or paternity, temporary disability, adoption or foster care leave, and care of children under three years old or relatives up to the second degree.

Precedent at the same center

This is not the first call of this type at the center: on August 13, 2026, the same Consell Comarcal del Baix Empordà published in bulletin number 155 (edict 7342, reference BOP-2026_0_155_7342) the bases for six positions of 1st Class Gardening Official at the Tramuntana Special Employment Center and Occupational Center, also including the establishment of a temporary employment pool.

The call opens a temporary labor access route to a technical management position in the field of social services and employment in Baix Empordà, aimed at professionals in Psychology, Pedagogy, or Social Work from the region and its surroundings.
