Landazuri worked with teenagers for two years before he was caught
Juan Guerra Landazuri successfully lived in Britain with his new identity for two years and even got a job helping vulnerable teenagers - despite being banned from working with children for life.
The 44-year-old, originally known as Juan Alejandro Guerra, was jailed for four years in 2002 for two offences of indecent assault on a girl under 14.
Landazuri was deported back to Ecuador in 2005 after serving his jail sentence.
But when he arrived home he legally changed his name and got a Spanish passport because he has a dual nationality.
He then sneaked back into the UK in 2013 as as part of a work exchange programme.
Landazuri moved to Ispwich, Suffolk, where he worked at a care company for 18 months, helping 15 to 19-year-olds with learning difficulties find accommodation.
Ipswich Crown Court heard how he left the "previous convictions" section of his application form blank.
