The City Council of A Coruña declares the process for two senior economists void

The City Council of A Coruña has declared the selection process to fill two positions for senior technician in economics, subgroup A1, via the free quota, as void. The decision was adopted by resolution of the delegated councilor responsible for Economy and Strategic Planning dated October 23, 2026, and published in the Official Gazette of the Province of A Coruña (BOP) number 212, dated November 5, 2026, with the official reference 2026/7013.

The reason cited in the announcement is categorical: no applicant passed the four mandatory and eliminatory exercises that made up the opposition phase. With no successful candidates, the procedure remains empty and the two convened positions are not filled.

The authority to resolve corresponds to the delegated councilor responsible for Economy and Strategic Planning, acting by delegation of the Local Government Board of the City Council of A Coruña. The text appears signed in the city of A Coruña on October 27, 2026, by José Manuel Lage Tuñas, the delegated councilor responsible for the area, with the usual publication formula: The Local Government Board, P.D.

Two positions from the 2021 employment offer

The positions declared void were not a new call, but rather the execution of an old offer that had been pending resolution for years. The data appearing in the announcement are as follows:

• Number of positions: two, via the free quota.
• Category: senior technician in economics, subgroup A1.
• Scale: special administration, technical subscale, class senior technicians.
• Position code: C.E. 13/21.
• Fit: Public employment offer of the year 2021.
• Original call: resolution of the delegated councilor of Economy and Strategic Planning of September 5, 2024.

The reference to the position code and the 2021 offer places the procedure among the stabilization and replacement processes that the City Council of A Coruña has been dragging along for several years. The declaration of void formally closes that file, but leaves the two allocations vacant in the list of job positions.

Four exercises without a single pass

The announcement does not detail the content of the exercises nor the scores obtained by the candidates; it limits the motivation to a single circumstance: that no one passed the four mandatory and eliminatory exercises. This implies that the cutoff occurred in the opposition phase and that there were no people who proceeded to the evaluation of merits or the appointment proposal.

The publication also does not include the number of admitted applicants nor the qualifications of the qualifying tribunal, data that in other processes of the same council usually appear in the provisional and final lists. What is proven is the final result: zero passes for two positions.

A procedure that closes without filling

The declaration of a void process is an administrative act that exhausts the route of the convened procedure. Following publication in the BOP, the file is resolved without appointments and the two positions remain without a holder, with the consequent effect on the workload of the municipal Economy service.

The published resolution does not announce a new call nor does it set deadlines to repeat it. Any new call will have to be approved by a subsequent act of the competent body and published with its own deadlines for the submission of applications.

For candidates preparing for subgroup A1 positions in the A Coruña local administration, the news has a double reading: the 2024 call is definitively closed without positions filled, but the two senior economist allocations remain vacant and will predictably be released again. It is advisable to monitor the BOP and the municipal electronic office, as any new call for these positions must be officially published to open the application period.
