5 Current GIS, Remote Sensing & Land Surveying Jobs in North Africa – October 2026

GIS jobs in North Africa October 2026 include public geomatics and topography competitions, a territorial-planning consultancy, and a private GIS data-engineering role. This edition contains five distinct openings checked on 25 October 2026, all in Morocco. Searches also covered Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Mauritania, but no additional vacancy passed the freshness, active-application and duplicate checks. Two of the five have deadlines in November, so this month’s article includes calls already accepting applications for next-month closing dates.

Across the selected openings, employers need survey accuracy, coordinate handling, spatial data quality and clear decision maps. Compare the September North Africa jobs roundup for earlier opportunities, or visit TechGeo Geo-News for the regional series.

Current North Africa GIS and surveying vacancies

Morocco: detailed vacancy profiles

1. Ingénieur d’État, SIG — Ministry of the Interior — Province of Settat

The Province of Settat is recruiting one state engineer in geographic information systems through a public competition. The official call names SIG as the specialty, grade 1 at scale 11, online submission through Emploi-Public, and a 2 November deadline; the examination is scheduled for 29 November. The public notice is concise and does not list software, salary amount, remote work or detailed daily duties. Applicants should therefore use the attached official order to confirm the admissible degree and required documents before submitting. This is a fit for a qualified geomatics engineer who can evidence spatial-data management, coordinate systems, quality control and mapping in a targeted CV, without claiming tools the call does not request. Use competition code C44151/26 when checking the correct form. The official page expressly identifies online deposit on Emploi-Public; do not mistake its contact form for the application route. Read the exact call and apply.

2. Ingénieur Topographe — Urban Agency of Errachidia

The Urban Agency of Errachidia has opened a one-position competition for an Ingénieur Topographe. Its official vacancy page gives the 23 October publication date and a closing time of 16:30 on 9 November. The page links an opening order, which candidates should read for the precise dossier, qualification and delivery method; it does not provide a salary figure or a work-arrangement policy. A strong application should document real topographic projects, survey control, field measurement, coordinate handling and accurate plans, with the candidate’s actual software and instruments identified. Those portfolio topics are application advice rather than requirements claimed by the short listing. The role is a direct route into an urban-agency setting, where accurate base measurements underpin land and planning decisions. Reference C44270/26 helps distinguish this new competition from older Errachidia notices, some of which are already at results stage. Read the exact call and apply.

3. Ingénieur d’État — Topography / Civil Engineering / Geoinformation — Urban Agency of Oued Eddahab Aouserd

The Urban Agency of Oued Eddahab Aouserd is advertising one state-engineer post open to the named fields of topography, civil engineering or geoinformation. The official competition page was published on 9 October and closes at 16:30 on 26 October, so this call needs immediate attention. It links both an opening order and French position sheets; applicants should consult those documents for exact eligibility, documents and submission instructions. The public summary does not specify salary or working arrangement. Geospatial applicants can show how survey measurements, coordinate reference systems and reliable geographic data support urban-agency work, while carefully matching their degree to the official specialty. Reference C44066/26 identifies this exact call. This vacancy is in Dakhla, Morocco; the title reflects the employer’s stated alternatives and does not imply that three separate jobs are available. Read the exact call and apply.

4. GIS & Territorial Planning Specialist — Lixia Capsia Gestionis

Lixia Capsia Gestionis seeks a short-term GIS and territorial-planning consultant for an approximately eleven-week agro-food infrastructure study. The listing places the hybrid role in Casablanca and sets 27 October as the application deadline. The specialist will build a georeferenced inventory, define a spatial database and coordinate system, map facility catchments and flows, screen candidate sites, and produce an atlas and decision maps. It requests at least five years of GIS and territorial-planning experience, practical spatial-data management, QGIS or ArcGIS, and fluent French. Applicants should show a concrete database, service-area analysis and decision-support map in their portfolio, explaining assumptions and data quality. The public page supplies a direct CV-and-cover-letter email route and subject line. It does not disclose a fee or salary. The portal describes the advertisement as a verified listing and posted about 22 days before this check, within the permitted 30-day window. Read the exact call and apply.

5. Geomatics Engineer — GIS Data Processing & Analysis — RIBATIS

RIBATIS is recruiting a geomatics engineer in Casablanca for GIS data processing and analysis. Its company-authored vacancy describes importing geographic data, conversion and reprojection, topology and completeness checks, harmonising datasets, spatial joins and user support. The advert names QGIS, ArcGIS, Shapefile, GeoJSON, KML, WMS/WFS, FME and GDAL/OGR, plus raster and satellite-image processing. It asks for a Bac+5 qualification in IT with a GIS specialty and relevant prior experience, without stating a precise year threshold. A suitable CV can demonstrate a before-and-after data-quality workflow and explain how deliverables were validated. The page showed a recent posting and a direct email application instruction to RIBATIS in addition to an Apply control. Salary, formal deadline and remote-work policy are not stated. This is a distinct private-sector opportunity for candidates who enjoy building reliable data products rather than only preparing maps. Read the exact call and apply.

Skills in demand across these five openings

The public competitions show continued demand for accurate topography and geographic information in urban and provincial administration. Their short online summaries should not be read as exhaustive job descriptions: candidates need to review the linked opening orders and position sheets. The Casablanca consultancy adds spatial databases, catchment mapping, logistics flows and site screening. RIBATIS adds reprojection, topology, interoperable formats and raster handling. Together, the five adverts reward evidence that spatial data are both technically sound and useful to decision makers.

• Surveying and geoinformation: field measurements, reliable coordinates and documentation of how a plan was produced.
• GIS data quality: projection, topology, attribute joins, completeness and conversion between the formats actually named in the advert.
• Spatial planning: service areas, infrastructure inventories, constraint layers and maps that explain site choices.
• Communication: precise application dossiers, technical documentation and clear explanations to users and multidisciplinary teams.

How to apply from North Africa

Start with the application method attached to each exact call. The Settat competition explicitly directs candidates to online submission on Emploi-Public; its contact box is only for questions. The two urban-agency pages link official orders or position sheets, which should be treated as the authority for diploma equivalence, required documents and how the dossier must arrive. The Dakhla deadline is the earliest, on 26 October at 16:30. Do not wait for the examination date to submit.

For the Lixia Capsia consultancy, send a tailored CV and cover letter through the email route given in the listing, with examples of service-area analysis and editable spatial deliverables. For RIBATIS, use the address and subject instruction in the company-authored advert and describe a real data processing workflow: source, reprojection, validation, output format and user result. Avoid listing software you cannot discuss. TechGeo’s GIS interview guide can help structure examples, and the Arabian Gulf jobs roundup offers a comparison with enterprise GIS and infrastructure roles.

Citizenship, licensing, visa eligibility and work authorisation vary by employer and public competition. Where the checked page is silent, do not assume eligibility; read the official order or ask the recruiter before spending money on documents or travel.

Frequently asked questions

Are the November deadlines already open?

Yes. The Settat and Errachidia notices were published in October and showed November closing dates when checked on 25 October 2026. Apply using each notice’s own instructions.

Does one competition with several specialties mean several jobs?

No. The Dakhla call lists topography, civil engineering and geoinformation as alternatives for one position.

Are salaries available?

None of the five checked vacancy pages disclosed a numeric salary or consultancy fee. Public grades are listed where the official notice provides them.

Why are there no Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt or Mauritania rows?

Searches found older, expired, repeated or insufficiently verifiable listings. Adding a country without a qualifying vacancy would mislead applicants.
