To be honest.. no. Without speaking Spanish you will have to work in tourism, mainly in the south. Good luck with the job hunting.

The best way to learn Spanish is to surround yourself with locals, and not English Locals because you will be lazy and take the easiest option ..... ;)

I also think that it will be very difficult to get a job without spanish.
In the Moment i am doing an internship in the south of the island. I am working together with to spanish people. It helps me to improve my spanish. Maybe this is also an option for you!?

Or try to get a job in the south, because here we have a lot of english speaking people.

Good luck with any job hunting, with 29.8% unemployment in the Canary Islands, I would think these 'all inclusive' hotels have all the jobs....
