Security work can fit the bill. I must emphasize "can" though. Some positions involve
more work than others... In the best case scenario you can find security jobs where you have about an hour of real work out of eight and the rest of the time you can read books, do what you want with your phone, and maybe even bring your laptop to work. Even if you end up with the more work- heavy positions you might just have the chance to practice speaking (doubly so for Spanish, but you probably don't have any trouble with that anyway) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

If you're at a decent enough level in a language, you could try to find a job working with
people who speak your target language. A friend of mine learning Spanish in university worked the strawberry fields near her city alongside migrant workers, and said that it really helpped her. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

A job in a popular tourist place where you sell something or make some kind of services for tourists from different
countries. I have noticed that those people speak several languages at least at A1-A2 level and most successful of them always try to figure out where are you from and speak with you on your language. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

"Independently Wealthy" is a great job for learning languages. Sadly my career adviser never offered this to me as an option.

Well, a career in the diplomatic service could be an option.
