Provisional list of admitted candidates for Firefighter Communications Operator

The Badajoz City Council has made public the provisional list of admitted and excluded applicants to fill, as career civil servants, five positions for Communications Operator of the Fire Service. The list is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Badajoz number 163, dated August 26, 2026, via announcement 3372/2026, and opens a period of ten business days for those affected to rectify the defects that led to their exclusion.

The call for applications is processed through an open competitive examination system (concurso-oposición), and its rules were published in full in the BOP of Badajoz number 107, dated June 8, 2026. The resolution, adopted by the Mayor’s Office, is signed by the Fourth Deputy Mayor, Eladio Buzo Corzo, by virtue of the delegation conferred by the decree of February 2, 2024.

A call with nearly a hundred applicants

After the application period ended, the provisional list includes a total of 101 applicants, of whom 71 have been admitted and 30 excluded for various reasons. Among those admitted are, among others, Laura Agama Pardo, David Alegre Corrales, María Trinidad Álvarez de Lara Álvarez, Carlos Ballesteros Pena, Sergio Casimiro Hompanera, José Luis Marín Fernández, Javier Minguela Diez, David Salazar Pachón, and Alberto Trejo Barril.

• 71 admitted applicants for the five announced positions.
• 30 excluded applicants in the provisional list.
• Selection system: open competitive examination.
• Positions: five, as career civil servants.

Causes for exclusion and rectification

The announcement details fourteen causes for exclusion, ranging from formal defects in the application to a lack of supporting documentation. The most frequent are the absence of the official form, the lack of a photocopy of the required qualification, the lack of a photocopy of the ID (DNI), and the failure to prove payment of fees.

• Official application form is missing (cause 1).
• Payment of fees is not correctly proven or the receipt is missing (causes 4 and 5).
• Photocopy of the required qualification is missing or not correctly proven (causes 6 and 7).
• Photocopy of the ID (DNI) is missing (cause 8).
• Complete and updated employment history is missing as of the date of submission (cause 10).
• Large family status is not proven (cause 9) or disability status (causes 12 and 13).

Deadline and procedures

Excluded applicants, as well as those omitted from the list, will have a period of ten business days to rectify defects and submit claims, counting from the day following the publication in the gazette. Those who have detected errors in the entry of their personal data may likewise bring this to light within the same period.

Those who do not remedy the defect that led to their exclusion nor file a claim justifying their right to be included will be definitively excluded from the selection process. The publication of the final list and the scheduling of the tests will be announced through the official channels of the City Council.

The call for applications reinforces the staff of the Badajoz Fire Service, a body essential for the security and emergency response of the city. The incorporation of five new communications operators, as career civil servants, guarantees the stability and continuity of a key public service; therefore, the result of this selection process will be closely followed by the applicants and by the municipal corporation itself.
