Help finding animal care/welfare jobs in Spain

Question

Hi everyone, i'd really like to start a career in animal care/welfare in Spain. I'm English but i am learning Spanish.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks,

Daniel.

Answer 1

Do you have a work permit for Spain? And are you fluent enough in Spanish to work? Do you have a degree in something relating to animal care/welfare, or a *great deal* of work experience working with animals already? If you answered yes to all three questions, then you may start your career in animal care/welfare in Spain -- call university-based agricultural programs, nonprofits focused on animal welfare, and the local employment office to find a job.

But if you answered no to any of those questions, then you can only work illegally, and to find these jobs, you would have to visit ranches or animal shelters, try to convince the people to pay you under the table, and try to convince them that you are qualified to work with their animals. If you are caught, you could be deported.
