We are interested in contact english/french/germain native speakers for our call center. We are a companie based in Montevideo. You can contact us by sending an email to ressources@gmail.com
And ... to teach english in our country (in private institutions) you don't need to have a teaching training certificate.

You don´t need a certificate to teach English here. Being a native speaker is a great asset. But how are you going to teach English if you have no training? You can apply at Berlitz and they will train you and then pay you less than US$ 3 per hour. That is a good way to meet people, get to know the country, and make a little extra spending money if that is your goal.
But if your goal is to support yourself and make the ´big bucks´ or rather ´pesos grande´ you need to know what you are doing when you get here. It doesn´t take much to get a TOFL or TEFL. Contact your local Community College there in the US. You can actually get one here from the Anglo Institute, but it is a one Saturday per week class for one year.
If you get in with the right company, or take on free lance clients, you can make between US$ 12 to US$ 25 per hour. But you have to know grammar construction and be able to explain why certain word order is wrong, and simply being a native speaker does not give you that skill.
Good luck!

Do I understand correctly that an expat can move to Uruguay and work legally without first becoming a legal resident?

You can start to work before even applying for residency. This income would be accepted by Immigration as proof of income fro your application which by the way should be in a short period after starting to work.
