[1][2] Born on 12 January 1896 in Madrid, Pedro González Bueno y Bocos studied at the Free Institution of Education.

On a professional level, González Bueno worked in the management of the Sociedad Ibérica de Construcciones Eléctricas, a company he took over after the assassination in 1936 of its president Luis Sánchez Cuervo.

[4] González Bueno, who settled in Navarre in 1936, collaborated with General Emilio Mola in the preparation of the coup d'état that led to the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War.

In April 1937, after the promulgation of the unification decree and the creation of the FET y de las JONS, Franco appointed González Bueno as a member of the political secretariat of the new party.

A man close to Ramón Serrano Súñer, González Bueno became a minister in the first Franco government and obtained the portfolio of Organizations and Trade Union Action between January 1938 and August 1939.
