Language requirement

I have an ATPL(H) with past military Support Helicopter and SAR experience and more recent civilian offshore experience. I am interested in relocating to Spain with my family but only have a very limited knowledge of the Spanish language.

Do you need to be fluent in Spanish to gain employment in Spanish aviation or are they willing to employ English speaking pilots with basic Spanish as a back up?

We are keen to learn Spanish in order to integrate into the local community we choose to live in but this will probably be fairly basic for the first few years.

Any guidance would be appreciated.
