What recommendations in job searchwould you have for an experienced product marketer with conversational Spanish <not business> with the desire to live in a Spanish speaking country “now”?
Are there certain industries that are more open to English-speaking while one is still learning Spanish? Are there companies more open to this reality?

Of course, it depends on if you're talking about Spain, Central America, or South America, as the business realities and fluency are different in each country.
In Spain, I would suggest reaching out to venture-backed startups, especially those looking to expand to the US (and that align with your previous focus industry). Your experience would be invaluable to them and they often have a lot of people who speak and conduct business in english. You may have similar luck with US tech companies expanding their presence in Mexico.
The second option is to find a remote role that is open to employment in other countries. This is often in the travel tech space, but I've seen this be possible in Edutech as well.
