Somehow I doubt it - & prepare yourself for an onslaught of posts alerting you to how dire the general economy and employment situation for Brits specifically, is down here.
Good luck;)

Do you have the necessary qualifications? and if you did you exams in the UK have they been homologadas to be recognised in Spain?
Do you speak Spanish fluently?

If you can't speak Spanish, how will you attend an interview?
I don't know much about your particular industry, but it is normally necessary to get qualifications homologadas for them to be accepted here in Spain.

Don't laugh but National express own the Spanish bus company ASLA now?

Fiona MW is right.
It's dead mans shoes for this kind of work. Somewhere like benidorm will be your best bet though coos its an all year round resort and there are a lot of coaches and coach drivers. My girlfriend works for a company called resorthoppa who deal with worldwide transfers and there is one english guy who doesnt speak much spanish that works for them,basically doing transfers from airport to resort. Once asked him how much they were on and after tips they get 2k a month which is very good.
You will be extremely lucky to land a job though.Im afraid they would rather keep the spanish experienced drivers in work.

oh and ps.
Your UK PCV licence will be fine in spain.
