The Provincial Council appoints Mariano Marín as head of artificial intelligence applications

The president of the Provincial Council of Cáceres has resolved the appointment of Mariano Marín Borrella as Head of the Artificial Intelligence Application Development Section, a singularized position identified with code no. 5669. The presidential resolution was signed on October 8, 2026, and published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Cáceres no. 0196, dated October 13, 2026, with official reference BOP-2026-4768.

The announcement, framed within Section I - Local Administration, resolves the specific merit-based competition convened by resolution on May 11, 2026, published in BOP no. 89, dated May 13, 2026. The procedure adheres to the system of filling permanent job positions through a specific merit-based competition, the established route for filling singularized positions within the provincial corporation.

The resolution is structured into three sections: the appointment of the public employee, the schedule for termination and assumption of office, and the indication of applicable appeals. The document appears signed in Cáceres on October 9, 2026, by Álvaro Casas Avilés, secretary of the corporation, and occupies pages 23194 and 23195 of the provincial gazette.

A newly created singularized position

The awarded position is the Head of the Artificial Intelligence Application Development Section, with code no. 5669, assigned to the list of civil servant positions of the Provincial Council of Cáceres. This is a singularized position, filled via a specific merit-based competition on a permanent basis.

The appointment falls to Mariano Marín Borrella, a public employee who will assume the head of section role once the selection process is resolved. The published resolution does not detail the functional content of the position, which refers back to the call for applications approved in May 2026.

Deadlines for termination and assumption of office

The second section of the resolution establishes a specific calendar for joining the new assignment:

• Three business days to assume office if the change does not involve a change of residence.
• Ten business days if it involves a change of residence, which must be justified.
• The period for assuming office begins to count the day following the termination of the previous post.
• Termination must take place within three business days following the publication of the resolution in the BOP of Cáceres.

Permanent nature and appeal process

The act is declared final in administrative proceedings. An administrative-law appeal may be filed against it before the Administrative Litigation Court of the city of Cáceres within two months from the receipt of the notification.

Optionally, a motion for reconsideration may be filed before the Presidency of the corporation within one month of notification, under the terms of articles 123 and 124 of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations. The resolution clarifies that this does not prevent the filing of any other appeal deemed appropriate.

The appointment provides the Provincial Council of Cáceres with a specific leadership position for the development of artificial intelligence applications, a designation that had not previously appeared among the corporation’s management positions. The post directly affects civil service personnel and the operation of provincial digital services, and arrives in a context of staggered resolution of merit-based competitions: on October 8, the bulletin published three other appointments through the same procedure.
