Whether you are planning to stay for a few months or a few years there are plenty of part time jobs to be found in Barcelona that can easily fit in around your other hobbies or commitments. The city is a transitory place to be, with many international students studying for a year at a time and many travelers stopping in to work for a while and experience the city before they move on. If you are a native English speaker there is plenty of well paid part-time work to be found where you can make use of your mother tongue. Over the summer months (July-August) it is relatively quiet as the schools are shut and many locals enjoy a long holiday. But starting from September there are plenty of part time jobs in schools and academies. The hours tend to be very flexible, either block hours in the morning or afternoons or evenings, or you can find one-on-one teaching, in which case you can dictate your own work schedule. Asides from teaching there are number of other opportunities. There is always bar and restaurant work available with many establishments paying good money for you to help promote them. You could be flyering or selling discount wristbands, giving cheaper entry into bars and clubs. Most bars or clubs leave it up to you to decide how many hours you want to work and when. Aside from working in the tourist sector there are also part time jobs to be found in multinational companies. There are many companies that require Telesales, Marketing and Customer Service representatives to work morning, evening, weekend or holiday shifts. It doesn’t matter if you can’t speak Spanish or Catalan; many companies require you to speak English only. It is also well worth walking around Barcelona and its different barrios (Neighborhoods’) and getting to know the city, looking in shop windows for advertisements and enquiring in bars and cafes.If you are from the EU it is relatively easy to obtain the paper work you need. Once you have found employment you simple register yourself and receive your NIE. This can be done at the police station on Rambla de Guipúscoa and will cost you €10. If you are from outside the EU it can prove to be a little harder and a slightly longer process. Besides trawling through websites looking for part time jobs you can also post adverts about your own services and let the work come to you. Websites such as hereBarcelona.com allow you to promote your skills and services to potential clients allowing you to build up a network of clientele and a place where new potential clients can read reviews on your services.
