You would need to have the correct visas in place before leaving the UK see the gov.uk website for more info.
As you may or may not know unemployment in Spain is historically very high even more so since COVID and any jobs would have to be offered to Spanish or EU citizens before you.
It is good that you are fluent in Spanish as it will go a long way in your quest but be aware wages in Spain are not very high and you work long hours for not very good pay. The relaxed lifestyle you expect from tv programs only really exists if you are retired with a good pension, working to live in Spain in my opinion is as hard if not harder than doing so in the UK but with more sunshine.
Sorry for the negative reply but that is just the way it is.

Hi, thanks for the advice. I am in the process of recovering my Spanish citizenship as I have a Spanish father so will have everything in place before I leave the UK.
Good luck with your job search.
