The advice of the Citizenship Unit within Community Malta Agency and the Expatriates Unit within Identita` should be sought as necessary in the interpretation of the above provisions.

The appointment of candidates referred to at (b), (c), (d) and (e) above would necessitate the issue of an employment licence in so far as this is required by the Immigration Act and subsidiary legislation.  Jobsplus should be consulted as necessary on this issue.

In addition applicants must be:

  2. in possession of ECDL certification and a valid Driving License.
  3. in possession of  five (5) subjects at MQF Level 3 , or a recognised comparable* qualification, which must include Maltese and English.

  • At least Grade C or 4  inthe case of Edexcel (London) examinations /Oxford examinations;

Short courses leading to awards, as distinct from qualifications, do not have the required number of ECTS credits at the respective MQF level and, hence, will not be considered for eligibility purposes.

Public Officers applying for this post must be confirmed in their current appointment, unless the current appointment is in a different class/career stream or in a definite position, but may apply for a lower grade/position even if not confirmed and whether in the same stream or not.

Appointees must obtain, or be approved, for the award of such qualification within one year of their appointment date. If this stipulated deadline for the attainment of such said minimum qualification is not met, the appointment will be, for this reason, revoked.

(ii) Furthermore, candidates who are currently following a recognised programme of study at a higher MQF level than that requested above will also be considered.  Such candidates are to submit evidence that they have successfully completed the necessary ECTS credits, or equivalent, and attained the required MQF level, by the closing time and date of the call for applications. Prospective applicants should note the requirement to produce MQRIC recognition statements in respect of their qualifications from MQRIC or other designated authorities, as applicable, as per provisions applicable to this call for applications (see link below).
