HI Mary - very happy to provide help - they're a good crowd in here.
Yes you can learn to drive here... but it is pricey and he would need to speak decent Spanish. Far better to do it in Blighty to keep the pressure and stress to a minimum. Our nipper looked into all of this recently - and opted to do it in England before he moves back out here.
Always work for electricians out here... as self-employed. He'll need to set his documents in order (which Ben at
www.asesoriaeuropa.com can sort for him). I don't know of anyone (English speaking) who takes sparkies on with a contract I'm afraid.
Hope that helps a little xxxx
