Ferrol appoints two general administration technicians in an open call

The Ferrol City Council has appointed Miguel Ángel Calviño Rodríguez and Rafael De Celestino Del Barrio as career civil servants of the general administration scale, technical subscale, group A, subgroup A1. The decision was adopted by the delegated councilwoman of the Human Resources Area through a resolution dated September 18, 2026, published in the Official Gazette of the Province of A Coruña number 184, on September 25, 2026, with the reference 2026/6090. The publication of the announcement marks the starting point of the deadline for the two appointed persons to take office.

The two appointments conclude a selection process that began with the 2025 public employment offer. On August 17, 2026, the BOP number 155 published, with the reference 2026/5359, the list of persons who passed the selection procedure, via the open competition system, for two technical general administration positions belonging to the general administration scale, technical subscale and superior class, group A, subgroup A1 (OEP 2025).

In that first publication, the Ferrol City Council granted the successful candidates a period of 20 business days, counting from the day following the publication in the BOP, to present the documentation proving compliance with the requirements demanded in the call. Once that accreditation phase was completed, the resolution of September 18 formalized the appointment as career civil servants.

From the selection process to the appointment

The announcement of September 25 outlines the agreement in two points. The first appoints the two listed persons as career civil servants of the general administration scale, technical subscale, group A, subgroup A1. The second orders the publication of the announcement in the Official Gazette of the Province and establishes that the deadline for the interested persons to take office begins to count from that publication.

The appointed persons are:

• Miguel Ángel Calviño Rodríguez
• Rafael De Celestino Del Barrio

The document identifies both persons by their name and surnames and with a partially hidden tax identification number, in accordance with the usual publication model of the provincial gazette.

Who signs the resolution

The resolution bears the signature of the delegated councilwoman of the Treasury and Human Resources area, Susana María Sanjurjo Fraga, acting in use of the delegation conferred by the agreement of the Local Government Board of December 11, 2023. That agreement was published in the Official Gazette of the Province of A Coruña number 241, on December 20, 2023, and is what enables the councilwoman to resolve personnel matters.

The announcement appears in the Local Administration section of the gazette, under the Human Resources heading of the Ferrol City Council, and bears the announcement number 2026/6090, with a length of a single page.

What changes with the publication

Publication in the BOP is not a minor formality: it is the act that activates the countdown of the period for the two appointed persons to take possession of their posts. Until this step is completed, the appointment does not deploy all its effects.

The announcement does not detail the number of days of the period for taking possession, which is governed by the general regulations applicable to local administration civil service personnel. What is established, however, is the exact moment from which that period is counted: the day following the publication in the provincial bulletin.

The news is of direct interest to candidates following the public employment processes of the Ferrol City Council and to municipal staff, because it consolidates two positions in the technical scale of General Administration and marks the administrative timelines governing the effective incorporation of the selected persons.
