Hi,
I’m looking to move in sync with sis and mum to Spain this year. They already own house near Malaga. What’s the best way to advertise for work as a carer within the expat community ? I have 25 years experience specialising in dementia and palliative and currently work as a senior with the NHS. Would like to offer services to elderly Brits so they don’t have to come home for healthcare support.

I would suggest an advertisement in the local free papers in English, local bars / shops and word of mouth.

You could try local care homes.

All depends I guess on whether you want to work legally (and pay autonomo and or taxes) or work for cash. But I would agree with missile's post.

Happy to pay tax etc. Prefer to be legal always! Thanks x

Yes we all do but unfortunately, Spain's self-employed system is not always that conducive with very high monthly contributions ie around 350€ per month. But that would give you health cover and pension contributions.
