Requirements, fee, and submission of applications

To participate, no academic degree is required, but candidates must hold Spanish nationality under the terms of Article 57 of the EBEP, be at least 18 years old and not exceed the maximum compulsory retirement age, hold a Class B driver’s license, not be disqualified or dismissed via disciplinary proceedings, and possess the necessary functional capacity.

The required documentation is Annex I (application and responsible declaration), proof of payment of the fee, the DNI, and the Class B driver’s license. The fee is set at 10 euros and can be paid by card at the Town Hall, by electronic transfer, or at La Caixa and Caja Rural del Sur offices. Applications are to be submitted at the General Registry, located at calle Real 4, 41388 San Nicolás del Puerto (Seville), or electronically via the municipal electronic office, within a period of ten business days from the publication of the summary in the BOE.

A theoretical exam and a manual practical test

The competitive examination (oposición), which is mandatory and eliminatory, accounts for 60% of the final grade and consists of a multiple-choice questionnaire of 40 questions plus five reserve questions, lasting 60 minutes, and a practical and manual test using municipal tools and machinery. Each exercise is graded out of ten points and requires a minimum of five to pass. The merit phase (concurso), which is non-eliminatory, provides the remaining 40% and evaluates professional experience and training.

The final grade is obtained using the formula (A x 0.6) + (B x 0.6) + (C x 0.4) + (D x 0.4), and the order of appearance for candidates begins with those whose first surname starts with the letter “Ñ”, according to the 2026 draw published in BOJA no. 33, dated February 18, 2026.

The tribunal will consist of a presidency, four members, and a secretary with a voice but no vote; its acts may be challenged through an appeal for reversal within one month or a contentious-administrative appeal within two months before the courts of Seville.

Impact for the Sierra Norte

The call for applications opens a path to stable employment without degree requirements in a small municipality of the Sevillian Sierra Norte, where permanent labor staff positions are scarce. The requirement for a Class B driver’s license, schedule availability, and the breadth of functions define a versatile position oriented toward guaranteeing the basic services of the municipality.
