Where can I find media jobs in Spain?

[lemmy5]

Hello there,

I am writing in the hope that you can help. I am on the verge of moving to Spain but would like to start applying for jobs before I move permanently. Could anyone direct me to websites which have good vacancies for work in broadcast journalism for English/intermediate Spanish speakers? I would be ever so grateful for your help. Also, does anyone know of any television/radio stations who may be looking for broadcast journalists who are not native Spanish?

Hi and welcome to the Forum ,

Whereabouts in Spain are you moving to? I have a contact in radio broadcasting on the Costa Blanca.

As an alternative to Pasanada area, the radio station I listen to is "Spectrum FM" Spain which covers from Marbella to Almeria -ish - maybe worth looking at their website. There are several english speaking radio stations across the costas and newspapers too. "The sur in English" springs to mind although I think thats just a direct translation of the Spanish paper "The sur". worth a look though, if only to look at their "situations vacant" page

Funnily enough I am moving to the Costa Blanca. I would really, really appreciate any help . I can even locate to a different region of Spain if the work is there.

At present I am a writer. In the past I have researched and written six half-hour documentaries for ITV. I have also had several freelance journalism jobs (long list of assignments) and am educated to degree level with intermediate Spanish. My CV and work samples show the extensity of my experience.
