1 Head of Digital and AI Pole post in Marrakech

One Head of Digital and Artificial Intelligence Pole post in Marrakech

The Office de la Formation Professionnelle et de la Promotion du Travail has opened an application call for the post of Head of the Digital and Artificial Intelligence Pole, under a regular recruitment process identified by reference RH 178/26 and competition code C 44707/26. The announcement states that the number of posts on offer is one (01), and that the assignment is in Marrakech.

This is a managerial position with a strong technical and pedagogical dimension. Its holder sits at the junction between training programmes and the needs expressed by the economic environment, with responsibility for supervising the pole's human and material resources and for guaranteeing the quality of the training services delivered.

What the Head of the Digital and Artificial Intelligence Pole does

The core mission is to ensure that the training programmes of the Digital and Artificial Intelligence Pole match the needs expressed by the economic environment, and to develop the skills of the members of the technical and pedagogical staff so as to guarantee the quality of the services provided.

Main activities attached to the post

The announcement lists the following activities for the post holder:

• Supervising the training services of the Digital and Artificial Intelligence Pole;
• Deploying training engineering work;
• Steering the trainer-training process of the pole;
• Managing the human resources of the pole;
• Managing the material resources of the pole;
• Monitoring the development of the pole's teaching resources and multimedia materials;
• Controlling the quality of the pole's training services;
• Communicating with the external professional environment;
• Managing projects related to the pole's training;
• Supervising the running of the pole's assessment examinations.

These duties show that the role is not confined to administrative management: it covers the pedagogical side, the technical side and relations with economic actors, and therefore requires both scientific competence and the ability to steer and coordinate.

Required profile and eligibility conditions

The announcement sets out conditions that applicants must meet; failure to meet them leads to the file being rejected.

Diploma and professional experience

• Hold an engineering diploma, or equivalent, in computer science, a diploma giving access to scale 11 of the civil service;
• Prove cumulative professional experience of at least three (3) years in the Digital and Artificial Intelligence field;
• Have experience in training engineering, which is considered an asset rather than an eliminatory condition;
• Be under 45 years of age on the date of taking up the post;
• Hold Moroccan nationality.

It is worth distinguishing clearly between what is mandatory and what is preferential. The computer-science engineering diploma, the experience in the Digital and Artificial Intelligence field, the age limit and the nationality are binding conditions. Experience in training engineering, by contrast, gives an advantage without excluding other applicants. Likewise, diploma equivalence is required only of holders of diplomas issued by foreign institutions; it is not a general condition for all applicants.

Application file

The file must consist of the following documents, all in PDF format:

• The completed application form (F1), downloadable from the site www.ofppt.ma;
• An up-to-date CV setting out in detail the professional experience relevant to the post;
• A copy of the required diploma, with diplomas issued by foreign institutions accompanied by copies of equivalence certificates;
• A copy of the national identity card (front and back) on a single page, in PDF format.

Note that any incomplete file, or any file sent through a channel other than the one indicated, will not be taken into consideration, and that any incorrect information will lead to the cancellation of the application.

How to apply and key deadlines

Applications are made exclusively online, by sending the file documents in PDF format through the dedicated recruitment site. Files submitted through any other channel are not accepted.

1. Download the application form (F1) from the Office's official site and complete it;
2. Prepare the detailed CV, the copy of the diploma and the copy of the national identity card, all in PDF format;
3. Register on the recruitment site and upload the documents;
4. Check that the file is complete before the final submission.

The deadline for receipt of applications is 28 November 2026 at midnight. The announcement was published on 12 November 2026, which gives applicants a reasonable window to prepare their documents carefully.

Assessment tests and selection

The announcement sets no precise date or venue for the tests. It states that applicants preselected on the basis of their file will be invited to assessment tests, whose dates and venues will be indicated later. The first stage is therefore preselection on file, which requires a compliant and complete application.

This announcement provides no further detail on test duration, coefficients or eliminatory thresholds, and it mentions neither a list of successful candidates, nor a waiting list, nor reserved quotas. None of these elements may be inferred in the absence of an explicit provision.

Salary and assignment

The salary attached to the post is given in a range from 4,500 to 6,900 MAD per month. The assignment is in Marrakech, as stated in the announcement.

Practical tips for preparing an application

The following tips are not official conditions; they are intended to help applicants build a solid file:

• Make the years of experience in the Digital and Artificial Intelligence field clearly visible in the CV, detailing the duties performed in each role;
• Highlight any experience in training engineering, since it counts as an asset;
• Check that the copy of the diploma matches the required diploma and, for a foreign diploma, attach the equivalence certificate;
• Make sure the national identity card is reproduced front and back on a single PDF page;
• Review the file before sending to confirm that no document is missing, since an incomplete file is not taken into consideration;
• Do not wait until the last day, as the deadline is 28 November 2026 at midnight.
