A position awarded by free appointment

The free appointment system is a mechanism for filling job positions reserved for those destinations of special trust or responsibility, in which the competent authority assesses the suitability of the candidates without the need for a public competition. In this case, the competence to resolve corresponds to the Vice-Department of the Department of Education, the body that issued the award resolution.

The publication in the BOJA provides official publicity to the appointment and allows interested parties to know the result of the procedure. The awarded position is integrated into the managerial and management structure of the Andalusian educational system, dependent on the Department of Education.

Regulatory framework and procedure

The filling of job positions by free appointment is regulated within the framework of the Basic Statute of Public Employees and the public service regulations of the Regional Government of Andalusia, which reserve this system for positions of special responsibility. The procedure begins with a public call, the suitability of the applicants is assessed, and it concludes with the award resolution, which is published in the official gazette.
