Head of Finance and Accounting Division at ONCA: 1 post

The National Office for Agricultural Council has announced the opening of applications for the post of Head of the Finance and Accounting Division, a single post open to all civil servants, under code R 27188/26. According to the job description attached to the notice, the post reports hierarchically to the Directorate of Human Resources and Support, and its holder is responsible for steering the establishment's financial and accounting management in line with the required standards and the regulations in force.

Key facts about the post

This is a position of responsibility within a public establishment active in the agricultural sector, intended for administrative and technical managers with proven experience in financial and accounting management. The notice sets the number of posts at one, with no breakdown by specialty: no specialty or preferential quota is mentioned in the available data. Consequently, any candidate meeting the eligibility conditions set out in the order may apply, regardless of their original specialty, provided they hold the required diploma and the required professional experience.

The notice was published on 3 November 2026, while the deadline for submitting applications is 20 November 2026 at 16:00. The interval between publication and closing is therefore relatively short, which requires preparing the documents and obtaining the necessary administrative opinions before the deadline.

Eligibility conditions

The order opens applications to national managers belonging to State services, public establishments and enterprises, and territorial collectivities, whose staff statutes provide for the possibility of secondment to public establishments. This last condition is essential: it is not enough to be a civil servant; the applicable statute must also authorise secondment to the establishment concerned.

Candidates must justify the following conditions:

• be classified at least at the grade of administrateur de 2ème grade (second-grade administrator) or ingénieur d'État (State engineer) or in an equivalent grade;
• hold at least one diploma allowing access to the grade of administrateur de troisième grade or an equivalent grade;
• justify at least four (04) years of service as a titular official;
• have exercised at least the function of chef de service (head of service) or an equivalent post;
• have excellent knowledge in the field.

It should be noted that the diploma condition concerns access to the grade of administrateur de troisième grade or an equivalent grade, and is distinct from the condition of classification at the second grade or the State engineer grade: the candidate must establish both, not one in place of the other.

Duties of the head of division

The duties and attributions of the post, as specified in the job description, are as follows:

• prepare, plan and execute the ONCA budget;
• ensure the management of accounting and the optimisation of the ONCA treasury;
• bring the ONCA's financial and accounting management into line with the required standards and the regulations in force;
• ensure the allocation of the necessary financial resources;
• ensure the monitoring and clean-up of accounting situations;
• steer the entity and ensure the internal management of the team.

Required skills

The job description lists the skills expected of the candidate:

• experience in financial management;
• knowledge of organisational management;
• rigour, organisation and coordination;
• capacity for analysis and responsiveness in financial and accounting management;
• critical thinking, meticulousness and a keen sense of results;
• a sense of responsibility and ethics.

Application file

Candidates must submit a file in two (02) copies, comprising the following documents:

1. an original application letter bearing, obligatorily, the favourable opinion of the Human Resources Directorate of the administration of origin, as well as the opinion of the hierarchical superior on the candidate's skills, including for candidates who are part of ONCA staff;
2. a copy of the national identity card;
3. a CV mentioning the candidate's skills, professional career, previously held posts, exact address and email;
4. all documents justifying the conditions required for the post, in particular the diploma and a recent certificate of employment;
5. an action plan and methodology proposed by the candidate for optimal management of the post.

Candidates who are preselected are called upon to present their work programmes and strategic visions for the post before the selection committee. The action plan and methodology are therefore not a mere formality but a central part of the file.

Submission arrangements and deadline

Applications must be submitted to the secretariat of the ONCA Directorate of Human Resources and Support, located at Avenue Mohamed Belarbi Alaoui, opposite the Lalla Soukayna Mosque, or sent by post to: BP 6672, Avenue Mohamed Belarbi Alaoui, Rabat-Instituts. The deadline for submission is 20 November 2026 at 16:00.

Given the short period between publication and closing, it is advisable to submit the file in person or by registered mail while keeping proof of dispatch.

Salary

Salary: from 4500 to 6900 MAD per month.

Practical preparation checklist

The following list is a practical tool, not an official condition, to help the candidate organise the file:

• check in advance the conditions of grade, diploma, four years of service and function of chef de service or equivalent;
• request the opinion of the Human Resources Directorate and that of the hierarchical superior early enough, since these administrative steps can take time;
• prepare two identical copies of the complete file;
• attach a recent certificate of employment and a copy of the diploma;
• draft a clear and concrete action plan focused on the budget, accounting and the clean-up of financial situations;
• check the exact address and email appearing in the CV.

The post remains an opportunity for managers experienced in financial and accounting management to serve within a public establishment in the agricultural advisory sector, with the requirements of rigour, coordination and team steering that this implies.
