The UPCT appoints three Archives and Libraries officials through internal promotion

The Rectorate of the Polytechnic University of Cartagena (UPCT) has appointed as career civil servants of the Basic Technical Scale of Archives and Libraries, subgroup C1, the three candidates who passed the internal promotion selection process convened to fill an equal number of positions. The decision is formalized through Rectoral Resolution 5455, of October 30, 2026, published in the Official Gazette of the Region of Murcia (BORM) number 258, of November 7, 2026.

The selection process and its background

The call for the three positions was approved by Rectoral Resolution No. 529, of April 30, 2026, the bases of which were published in BORM No. 113, of May 9, 2026. These were subsequently modified by two further rectoral resolutions: No. 576, of May 14, 2026, and No. 608, of May 25, 2026.

The appointment is issued after reviewing the resolution of the Qualifying Tribunal responsible for resolving the selection tests, in which the final list of candidates who had passed the process was made public, and having verified that all selected candidates prove compliance with the required access requirements.

The rectorate acts in the exercise of the powers conferred by Organic Law 2/2023, of March 22, on the University System, and Decree 160/2021, of August 5, of the Governing Council of the Autonomous Community of the Region of Murcia, which approves the Statutes of the UPCT (published in the BORM of August 7, 2021).

The three new career civil servants

The annex of the resolution identifies the appointed personnel, with their surnames and first name and the National Identity Document partially hidden for data protection:

• Gervasio Blasco Moreno
• María Belén García Méndez
• Juana María Munuera Escarabajal

The three gain access to the Basic Technical Scale of Archives and Libraries of the UPCT through the internal promotion system for the same workstation, as stated in the heading of the annex.

One month to take office and means of appeal

The second section of the resolution establishes that the candidates must take office within one month, counted from the day following the publication of the resolution in the BORM, that is, from November 8, 2026.

As this is an act that ends the administrative route, in accordance with article 38.4 of Organic Law 2/2023, the interested parties have two means of challenge:

• Optional appeal for reversal before the same body that issued the act, within one month from the day following publication (article 123.1 of Law 39/2015, of October 1).
• Contentious-administrative appeal before the Contentious-Administrative Court, within two months from the day following publication.

The resolution appears signed in Cartagena, on October 30, 2026, by the rector Mathieu Kessler Neyer, and is inserted in the Authorities and Personnel section of the bulletin, under the heading of the Ministry of Environment, Industry, Universities, Research and Mar Menor.

Impact for the staff and for the applicants

The appointment closes the internal promotion process initiated in April and consolidates three archive and library positions within the civil service staff of the UPCT, once the tests have been passed and the requirements accredited. For the Politecnica staff interested in future calls, the resolution confirms the deadlines and the procedure applied, while the three new civil servants have one month from November 8 to formalize their assumption of office.
