3 first-grade State Engineer posts open in Larache Province

Competition details and administrative reference

Larache Province has announced a recruitment competition for 3 posts of first-grade State Engineer – scale 11, open to the civil engineering and public works specialties. The competition carries the code C 44403/26 and falls under regular recruitment. The tests will take place on Sunday 13 December 2026 at nine in the morning at the Polydisciplinary Faculty of Larache, while applications must be submitted no later than 26 November 2026 at 16:30.

The opening order was published on 5 November 2026. This article concerns only the first-grade State Engineer post, within a broader competition that also opened other grades in Larache Province; the conditions specific to those other grades do not apply to this offer.

Salary: from 8000 to 11500 MAD per month.

Required qualification and eligibility conditions

Reference diploma

The competition is open to candidates holding a State Engineer diploma in civil engineering or public works, issued by national schools, institutes or university institutions authorised to deliver it, or a recognised equivalent qualification under Decree No. 2.12.90 of 8 Jumada II 1433 (30 April 2012) on the diplomas required for access to the various grades created by specific statutes, as amended and supplemented.

Any application containing a diploma or certificate that does not match the required level or specialty is rejected, as is an application containing a certificate of success instead of the required diploma. Diploma equivalence remains subject to the applicable regulatory provisions, and no foreign or non-matching diploma may be accepted without equivalence established under the applicable procedure.

Nationality, age and capacity

• Possession of Moroccan nationality.
• Enjoyment of civil rights and possession of the physical and mental capacity required to perform the duties.
• Being at least 18 and no more than 45 years old on 1 January 2026.

For this grade, age is assessed on 1 January 2026, a reference date separate from the competition date; candidates should therefore check their age as calculated on that date, not on the date of submission.

Tests, coefficients and selection rules

The competition consists of two tests: a written test and an oral or practical test, or both, with the following durations and coefficients:

Marking and admission

The written test is marked out of 20. Only candidates with an average of at least 12 out of 20 in the written test are admitted to the oral or practical test. The list of successful candidates is limited to the number of posts advertised, and a waiting list is drawn up in order of merit.

Candidates on the successful list or the waiting list must obtain an average of at least 10 out of 20, with no eliminatory mark. The oral or practical test carries a coefficient of 3 and counts towards the final average alongside the written test, which carries a coefficient of 4.

Application file

The application file is submitted according to grade and specialty and must contain the following documents:

• Application form for the recruitment competition, stating the candidate's full name, permanent address, telephone number, email address and the grade selected.
• Copy of the diploma or certificate in the required specialty, or one of the recognised equivalent qualifications under the applicable regulatory provisions.
• Copy of the national identity card, valid.
• Original copy of the criminal record extract and of the birth certificate.
• Curriculum vitae with a recent photograph of the candidate.
• Authorisation from the employing administration to sit the competition, for candidates who are civil servants, failing which the application is rejected or the candidate is removed from the final list of successful candidates.
• Copy of the certificate establishing the status of resistance member, ward of the nation, former military personnel or former combatant, for those concerned.
• Certificate of registration on the lists of persons with disabilities for candidates in that situation.
• Where applicable, any document proving the scientific competences and skills required to perform the function to be filled.

Special situations

Candidates with the status of resistance member, ward of the nation, former military personnel or former combatant must submit their applications through the administrations responsible for managing their affairs. Definitively successful candidates must complete their administrative file with the documents required by regulation for appointment; any missing document automatically cancels their admission. They must also present the original diploma or certificate for the specialty concerned and provide two copies certified true to the original, failing which they will not be admitted.

Submission procedure and deadlines

Application files are submitted to the registry office of Larache Municipality during public administration working hours, from the day of publication of the opening order until Friday 20 November 2026 at 16:30, against a receipt. They may also be sent by registered post to the following address: 209 Avenue Soussen, Maroc Nouveau subdivision, Larache, with the postmark serving as proof.

It should be noted that the closing date stated in the order differs from the deadline announced on the electronic offer sheet; candidates should therefore rely on the earliest and most protective deadline when preparing their file. Applications that do not contain the required documents or are submitted after the deadline are excluded.

Publication, convocation and lists

The list of candidates admitted to sit the competition and the results are published on the public employment portal, the portal of the General Directorate of Territorial Collectivities and the electronic portal of Larache Municipality. This publication constitutes convocation of the candidates to sit the competition, without individual summons.

The list of successful candidates is limited to the number of posts, and a waiting list is drawn up in order of merit. Any successful candidate whose admission is cancelled for one of the stated reasons is replaced by the next candidate on the waiting list, in order of merit, provided that candidate meets all the competition conditions.

Reserved quotas

25% of the posts are reserved for persons with the status of resistance member, ward of the nation or military personnel, and 7% of the posts are reserved for persons with disabilities holding a disability card issued under Article 8 of Decree No. 2.97.218 of 8 Sha'ban 1418 (19 September 1997). These two quotas are independent of each other and are not calculated one from the other.

Practical preparation advice

The suggestions below are not additional official conditions:

• Check early that the diploma matches the required specialty and, where necessary, that an equivalence decision exists for a diploma not issued by a national institution.
• Calculate your age as at 1 January 2026 before submitting the file.
• Prepare legible copies of the required documents and add the criminal record extract and birth certificate before the deadline.
• Revise general topics and the competences of territorial collectivities, as the written test may take the form of multiple-choice questions.
• Prepare for an oral interview or a practical test in civil engineering or public works, in line with the duties to be performed.
