  2. Cycling Country – Tour Guide & Mechanic
    Based in Alhama de Granada and explicitly wants someone living in Málaga/Granada province; needs English + Spanish and EU citizenship (or Spain/Portugal work visa).

    ~1 h away; Jan–May + Sep–Oct work fits around a summer job; self-employed (autónomo) model; English + some Spanish.

  5. Backroads – Trip Leader / Trip Prep Specialist
    Spain is one of its payroll countries and it runs Andalucía, Catalonia & Mallorca trips – but only if you hold a UK/EU passport and UK/EU licence (Australian licence not accepted).

Check first: your passport and licence. Many roles need an EU/UK passport (Backroads, Neilson, Mark Warner, Cycling Country) or an EU/UK licence (Backroads won't accept non-EU licences or International Driving Permits). Cards marked passport/licence check depend on this. "Unknown" means the posting doesn't say.
