The Tenerife Job Centre (TJC) was originally formed to fill a huge void here on the island. We found over the years both living and working here in Tenerife, that there wasn’t just one central area that these vacancies could be gathered and displayed…

We hear about hundreds of people who are or have been trying to find work here in Tenerife, but unless they are happy to sit for hours surfing the internet, or actually doing the leg work themselves; walking around in and out of each bar or office…they just didn’t have a clue where else to look!

By forming TJC, we hope to make that search easier…So here we are!

TJC offices are currently located in the South of Tenerife…we have a knowledge of not only this island, but the surrounding islands on-going requirements when it comes to employment.

(TJC predominantly covers vacancies right here in Tenerife…we do however cover the surrounding islands as well as selected countries across the world.)

We like to think we offer a unique personal service and for that reason, our staff here at TJC, are happy to give you on-going assistance with your job search.

As you can imagine, most of the work here surrounds the tourist trade. Bar work, Hotel work and PR’s etc and you have to realise there are probably 100 applicants for every job and these opportunities do not stay available for long. Tenerife needs skilled workers as well as unskilled so remember to bring your certificates or proof of qualifications.

Before you decide to give everything up and fly here, make sure you can afford to pay for your accommodation…you will need a job. It would certainly be advantageous to speak a foreign language, and experience goes a long way.

We always advise people to book a cheap holiday first and then if you’re serious about finding work in Tenerife get going as soon as you arrive, treating the two weeks as work not a holiday is a priority. Remember, most jobs in Tenerife are never advertised because there is always someone calling into these bars, restaurants and asking for work so as soon as a vacancy arises.

You have to remember that the wages here are far lower than those you may be used to but then the apartment you rent will also be lower…there has to be a balance.

Beer, Cigarettes and Fuel are also cheaper here… We are a Tax free island but don’t go back home with more than the legal requirements…

You may need to have an NIE number before you start work here. You can either apply for NIE at the National Police Station or via the Spanish consulate in UK.
