Very very difficult I'm afraid. There are some UK owned building and maintenance companies in the area but getting into them is rare I believe. 

Spanish builders hire Spanish first. Without speaking the language you would struggle. 

My advice would be that Spain is not a cheap country to have no income in. You need to be financially secure  (up to a point) before relocating. 

Sorry if this sounds negative but I'm trying to be honest and realistic.
