Agriculture and Fisheries appoints procurement specialist and acting division head

The Regional Secretariat for Agriculture and Fisheries has strengthened its advisory team and leadership in public procurement with two appointments published in the JORAM. Both take effect from 8 October 2026.

• Order No. 412/2026: Brígida Maria de Oliveira Brazão, a senior officer assigned to the Centralised Human Resources Management System of the Regional Secretariat for Agriculture and Fisheries, was appointed Specialist Adviser to the Office to provide expert advice on public procurement. The order sets her gross monthly base salary at 76.83% of the benchmark salary for holders of senior management posts of the first degree, plus a monthly supplement of 20% of the base salary, paid 12 times a year, for permanent availability and exemption from fixed working hours. The appointee is also entitled to the allowances provided for in Article 13(7) of Decree-Law No. 11/2012 of 20 January.
• Order No. 413/2026: Renata Isabel Pão Rosário, a law graduate and inspector in the Senior Labour Inspector career, on the staff of the Regional Authority for Working Conditions, was appointed, on an acting basis, head of the Public Procurement Division in the Office of the Regional Secretary. The acting appointment ensures the division is led while the service commission of its incumbent, Brígida Maria de Oliveira Brazão, who was appointed Specialist Adviser, is suspended. The order revokes Order No. 402/2026 of 2 October.
