2008-07-10 19:45:46 - Crowded, dirty, wet, grey, expensive... Sound familiar? If it does, you are not alone in your complaints about the UK.

You are also not on your own in looking abroad for a better quality of life, brighter skies and lower cost of living. Recent reports claim that over 1 million Brits are planning to move overseas in the next 5 years, joining the 5 million who have already taken the plunge.

Far flung destinations such as Brazil and China have

recently appeared on the list of must-live in destinations, joining eternal favourites such as Canada and Australia. But top of the list for quality of life is Spain and within the vast choice of Spanish landscapes, the Costa del Sol sits in pole position as Europe's top relocation spot.

However, planning to move abroad is one thing, but finding a good job with a decent salary is quite another. All too often, the promise of a job in the sun fails to live up to expectations - low pay and poor working conditions with zero chances of promotion are frequently the norm.

Until now. The recent launch of Obelisk Careers website has changed the face of recruitment in Spain, offering a world of opportunities in employment overseas.

Obelisk is a leader in overseas property investment and this fast-expanding company is continually looking for talented people to join their team. Job opportunities are available in a myriad of positions ranging from Investment Consultants to I.T. Analysts, from Copywriters to Financial Advisers. The website provides a comprehensive list of recruitment positions as well as current vacancies in this dynamic company.

Not only can prospective employees browse recruitment positions on the Obelisk Careers website, but they can also find out what working in Spain entails. The website offers indispensable advice and information on numerous aspects of employment such as essential paperwork, health matters and finding accommodation and schools. Obelisk Careers website also provides extensive information on life on the Costa del Sol and its climate, communications, local attractions, leisure time, culture and sports.

Situated in the heart of cosmopolitan Marbella with its year-round sunshine, Obelisk offers competitive salaries, excellent working hours in pleasant surroundings and plenty of opportunities for promotion. Choosing a job at Obelisk provides the chance to combine employment with the right company in the perfect location. And a job does not get much better than that.

'Obelisk presents employees with the opportunity to fulfil their chosen career path, even though they are in Spain,' comments Lisa Heminsley, H.R. and Recruitment Manager at Obelisk. 'We pride ourselves on offering secure, well-paid employment within a dynamic working environment. Traditionally, this has been hard to find in Spain, but at Obelisk we are changing the face of employment for ex-pats in Spain.'

They say the proof of the pudding is in the eating and if employee comments are anything to go by Obelisk is obviously doing things the right way. 'With Obelisk you have everything - excellent hours, an excellent team, excellent pay and a full legal contract,' says Joe Tucker, Accounts Assistant. 'I decided to move to the Costa del Sol for a new life and a job at Obelisk has enabled me to strike a happy balance between work and family life,' adds Alison Kane, Marketing Assistant. If you are looking for a job in the sun, contact Obelisk for a move in the right direction.
