Jobs available
In view of the economic situation here and the frightening levels of unemployment, I’ve made this page to update on available jobs that British people could apply for but which they might not otherwise be aware of. This will be listings in, e.g. Ashotel, online agencies, the Spanish press, etc., and a link to the original advert will always be given (or an email address at least). By definition, given where the vast majority of the adverts are originally placed, ability to speak Spanish is fundamental.
I hope this page helps, and of course, if any employers here are reading this and want to list jobs, please just send me the details through the Contact Me page and I’ll post them - please note I will only post genuine contracted jobs from legitimate businesses, so it’s no use asking me to list “homeworker” style adverts. Please confirm the terms of employment (i.e. contracted job? self-employed? wage? commission? social security? etc.), the requirements and preferences that employees should meet, and a job description. For those seeking work, please make any applications direct to the advertiser rather than with me.
Please note that the jobs are nothing to do with me, so there is no use in emailing me about them, or indeed about any other employment. I am not an employment service, nor do I have “useful contacts” for finding work – I just made this list to help spread the job offers I’ve come across here. Click on the links or ring the numbers supplied to apply.
