The first thing we need to know before you get any advice or information is:

Do you have a UK passport?

Do you live in Spain permanently and legally now?

Hi,

If you want to live and work in Spain you will need to secure a job first and then your prospective employer will need to apply for a work visa on your behalf from the Spanish consulate in the UK. 

All jobs that become available in Spain have to be offered to an EU passport holder first by law. There are many available lorry drivers within the EU so it's not likely that you will find an available position. 

Sorry for the bad news.

As tebo53 has already stated if you do not hold a EU Passport the only route available to you is to apply for a work visa. The following links will provide you with further information including visa application process:

You have another problem.

UK licences are no longer exchangeable for a Spanish so you would have to start again from scratch.
