Hi

I am hoping to move to Madrid in the new year.

I'm a native english speaker and I am currently learning Spanish.

I'm a Digital Marketing Executive who specialises in Technical SEO, Web Design and CRO.

Is there any job opportunities in this field in Madrid for someone who isn't fluent in Spanish?

Any advice, or contacts would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, the only advice I can give you is (if you still are in England) to look in infojobs.net, widely used here (you can also check out the freelancers options ) or more specific ticjob.es/eng/ Some job offers are directly in English! And maybe if you were already in Madrid you could contact a Chart of Engineers to look for a better advice maybe, but the websites I have found are not very useful. I think that probably in the university they can give you a better advice because they are more open minded being young. I can give you an email of the Students Representatives, maybe they can give you practical information:   delegacion@da.fi.upm.es   This faculty belongs to the Polythecnic University. (fi.upm.es/?id=inicio&idioma=english)

When sending your cv or resume I would tell you that in Spain it is usual tu include a picture of you.

In Spain there is a lot of unemployement but things are getting better.

If you have any Spanish doubt write me!!

Hey, I can´t edit my post and my links are under review, I really don´t know if the end is good being "under review". Just in case, the websites were infojobs.net and  ticjob.es/eng.

Good luck
