The usual "first" question is What passport do you hold,  EU or UK? How old are you?

Do you hold a EU, EEA or Swiss Passport? If not, you will require a visa to live and work in Spain. This link will provide you with more information:

If you are the holder of a EU, EEA or Swiss passport you can use the EURES (EURopean Employment Services) website to search for work not only in Spain but throughout the EU:

https://europa.eu/eures/portal/jv-se/home?lang=en

The language barrier may be an issue but there are many Engish speaking employers in the Benidorm area who may not require Spanish as a first language. If you Google "how to find English employers in benidorm" this will return several results.

Good luck.

Safety  away  below  standard  in  UK  Ireland  

Private  work  you might  get  bit you be  works  off  scrap  of  work,  Rents have risen  a lot last 2  years  it  no  longer  cheap  economy  it once  was
