Candidates should have experience in guest services, concierge work, reception or hospitality, strong communication skills and a professional, service-focused attitude.

Can I work in the Canary Islands?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Local-first test (hotel jobs are not on the shortage list), or a seasonal permit that comes with employer housing.
Official source: Spanish Ministry of Inclusion: residence and work permit for employees. Checked November 2026.
