The announcement distinguishes two categories of candidates, each with its own conditions, alongside a common requirement concerning public finance and public procurement. Each candidate should first determine the category to which they belong.

External candidates

• Hold an engineering degree or equivalent, that is, a diploma granting access to scale 11 of the civil service.
