Hi. I am an experience cleaner and I work self employed in the UK, I am wanting to move to Spain costa Blanca area benidorm area. I'm looking for work before I make the move? Is there much work for cleaners there.

To be self employed here in Spain is a minimum €250 a month payment to the government even if you have not made any money.
This is what I have been told and will give you something to think about.
Is that true? Who told you that.

Many Spanish people who are self employed have said that to me but I have never looked as I run 2 sucural's from UK based companies here. Totally different tax regime and probably easier/cheaper....
Tax laws change everyday/month/year here but this is a good indication - http://selfemployedinspain.com/cost-freelance-spain/

As to your question - is there much work here for a cleaner? Yes, many hotels with low paying jobs, but the season is over. Jobs are filled long before the main summer season starts and a Spanish lady with a family to house and feed will surely get the job before a single english immigrant.
As in any tourist location, there are "changeover" cleaning jobs for rentals, but these are mostly done by insured and established 1 or 2 wo/man companies who normally do not hire anybody else.
Supermarkets hire cashiers, X-mas is coming so shops will be hiring seasonal employees.
Do you speak any Spanish??? Will you have a car??
