Gibraltar work please.
 

Hey guys, I have lived all over Spain & suffered lately with the recession so I've decided to move to La Linea & find work in Gibraltar. I've heard all the horror stories & lived in Spain for 18 years so any positive advice would be appreciated. Am currently in Ibiza & it's worse than Bournemouth.
Is Ashley J or Andaluz Loli there? You guys seem helpful. PS All papers in order I'm a Londoner.

As Concierge for the Spanish section of BE I would like to say hello and welcome.

BE is a very large expat website, so if you have problems finding your way around we have concierges who will try to direct you. The moderators for the Spanish forums are Mitzyboy and Fred James, moderators are there to ensure that the site runs smoothly within the rules of BE. Problems and complaints should always be addressed to a moderador who will look into the matter and deal with it efficiently and fairly. Our members who post in the Spain Forums are friendly and helpful with a wealth of knowledge of the issues of living in Spain. At the top of the page you will find a quirkily named thread called Free Beer which is full of important and useful information. Hope you enjoy your time participating in the forums.

Please let me know if you need any further help.

At the moment unless you have a Gibraltar ID card you can't get a new contract of employment so no jobs to foreigners thanks to the new government

I don't think that is correct.

Where an employer proposes to engage an entitled worker [ANY WORKER] to fill a vacancy, he
shall notify the Director ( of Employment ) of his intention in respect of that worker

*“For the purposes of these Regulations “entitled worker” means a worker who,–
(a) is–
(i) by virtue of his nationality or residence entitled to seek and take up employment in Gibraltar;
(ii) subject to regulation 7A, an EEA national as defined in the Immigration, Asylum and Refugee
Act;
(iii) subject to regulation 7A(4), a family member of an EEA national as defined in the
Immigration, Asylum and Refugee Act; or
(iv) otherwise entitled by the law of the European Union or of the European Economic Area to
seek and take up employment in Gibraltar;”

Re: Gibraltar work please.
 

I found the original post rather strange

He mentions AshleyJ who made one post in November 2005, there is no Andaluz Loli in the members list although there is a Loli who made six posts between November 2005 and January 2006.

He appears to be looking for work in Gib but does not mention any type of work or qualifications or even areas of interest.
That is why I ignored the post at first to see how it developed, but intervened when false information was posted.

Still not sure he is for real.

Could be some kind of artificial intelligence bot?

Oh come on Fred, you know such comments will get us all a lecture on how little we know and how much the mods know from their "tools" that we rockers have no idea about.

but must agree with you
