Hi leyshon, you don't need the spanish citizenship, since being english (european) you are entitled to work in every country of europe, but you'll need a degree (either spanish or apply for the recognition of your degree in spain). Apart from that, the most important thing is your fluency in the spanish language, although you only have to prove it in the last part of the proccess (personal interviews). The whole proccess is different from nats. If you are interested have a look here:

Overseas Jobs
The Common European ATC Licence
Patrick, you will be able to move once you are qualified, validated and have some experience under your belt.
As most Air Traffic Control Officers will know the common licence is coming. European ATCOs will be more mobile when it comes into force. This means that UK ATCOs can go and work in the sun for a few years and good English speaking Europeans can come to the UK.
Safeskys has plans to open up the market to enable all ATCOs to move freely.
We plan to manage a register of available ATCOs and match them with vacancies at Airports throughout Europe. We will collate vacancies from all European Airports and act as a central clearing house.
The initial step is to register your CV with Safeskys with your wish-list of airports and an indication of when you would like to move.
Every thing will be confidential but we will need to interview ATCOs to assess their suitability before offering them to airports.
So Patrick, when you are ready, contact Safeskys on e-mail: [email protected] or visit the website www.safeskys.co.uk.

FREE SERVICE FOR ATCOs
Yes, Free for the ATCO.
Airports will however pay a fee, but it will be less costly and more effective than advertising throughout Europe.
We will train dedicated staff to visit Airports searching for ATC vacancies and selling the idea of an ATCO database to European Airports.

Despite the new EEC regulation, anyone wanting to work in an EEc country and is not a citizen of that State will still have to meet minimum requirements laid down, and that will usually mean taking some, if not all of that countries ATC exams.
I suppose that the mighty Safeskys, (the UK's only "ATC provider" not to have an established contract to supply all the ATC staff to an individual airport in the UK) will be able to sort all of this out as well?
Stick to scaring birds Richard....

Oh please, get over it.
This dude enquiring about employment elsewhere is no different from millions of other kids starting out in their careers. All bright eyed and bushy tailed, wondering where their new path will lead. Fact is, you can't make a move without experience. Typically 3 years. So you'll have a guy for three years before he can start looking around.
Has it never happened that you go through the process of training someone only for the company to transfer said person straight after validation????
Swings and round-a-bouts people. It's the nature of the beast. Damn silly trying to hunt down individuals.

Would you feel a little used?

Surely the job of a college instructor is to ensure that people are of a standard to pass the course and that they are suitable NATS atcos, ( unless self funded)?? Kinda like a Insurance assesor, making sure a garage are doing the job properly and in the insurance companies interests.
