San Bartolomé de Tirajana Town Hall Seeks Police Inspectors

Background

The San Bartolomé de Tirajana Town Hall has announced the opening of a selection process to fill two police inspector positions through internal promotion. The decision follows the municipal public employment offer for 2025, which included these vacancies due to ongoing staffing shortages in the local police force. This move aims to reinforce the community's security services amidst continuous resource gaps.

Selection Process

The process will be based on a competitive system combining tests and merit evaluation, with candidates required to meet strict eligibility criteria:

  • Spanish nationality
  • Relevant academic qualifications
  • Specific police experience

Participants must also present a fee of 85 euros for exam rights.

The selection process comprises:

  • Written exams on legal and operational knowledge
  • A voluntary language test
  • A merits-based phase that assesses academic background, experience, training, and recognitions

Successful candidates will undergo:

  • A practical training course
  • A six-hundred-hour internship before appointment

This initiative underscores the municipality’s commitment to:

  • Strengthening its police force
  • Ensuring professional development pathways
  • Improving public safety

"This process reflects compliance with both local and national legal standards governing police recruitment and public administration transparency."

The overall aim is to benefit residents by bolstering community security and effective law enforcement.
