Granada appoints its new Civil Engineer as a career civil servant

The Granada City Council has formalized the appointment as a career civil servant of Jorge Jesús Enríquez Maroto as a Civil Engineer, after passing the selection process convened to fill a position in this category. The decision is contained in the resolution of the Deputy Mayor Delegated for Human Resources, Organization, Smart City, Digitalization, and Innovation dated October 14, 2026. The announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Granada no. 211, corresponding to Friday, October 30, 2026, with the official reference BOP-GRA-2026-211006.

The legal framework of the appointment

The announcement is issued in compliance with article 116.c) of Law 5/2023, of June 7, on the Public Service of Andalusia, which requires the publication of the appointment of those who attain the status of career civil servant once the selection process has concluded. The municipal corporation makes the agreement public “for general knowledge,” according to the text signed by the delegated body for Human Resources.

The file originates from the municipal call for the coverage of a Civil Engineer position, whose rules and announcement were disseminated through the Official State Gazette no. 288, of December 1, 2025. The tests and the subsequent proposal of the candidate by the Evaluating Board were carried out based on that call, an element that the announcement expressly identifies as the basis for the appointment resolution.
