Tíjola Town Council is looking for two sports instructors to join its permanent staff (personal laboral fijo). Spain’s Official State Gazette (BOE) published the announcement of the recruitment call this Monday, 9 November, and with it the period for submitting applications opens: 20 working days counting from the following day, this Tuesday 10 November.
The two posts will be filled through a competitive process of merits and exams (concurso-oposición) and by open entry (turno libre), in other words, open to anyone who meets the requirements. According to the town council’s notice, dated 30 October, the full rules are published in the Official Provincial Gazette (BOP) of Almería, number 210, of 29 October. That is where they set out the requirements, the documents that must be submitted and how the tests will work.
When is the deadline?
Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays do not count towards the 20 working days. With the two December public holidays in Andalusia, Monday 7 (Constitution Day, moved from Sunday 6) and Tuesday 8 (the Immaculate Conception), the period would end on Wednesday 9 December, by our calculation. In any case, check the rules and don’t leave it until the last day.

In a town of 3,573 residents, according to the padrón (municipal register) figures from the INE, Spain’s National Statistics Institute, as of 1 January 2025, two permanent jobs are no small thing. Even less so when they are linked to sport, in a municipality that last October hosted the start of Almería Provincial Council’s Juegos Deportivos Provinciales (Provincial Sports Games).
