Sports Physiotherapist

A private family in Abu Dhabi, the UAE, wishes to add a sports physiotherapist to its household staff.

This is a permanent, live-in position with the family, with annual leave.

From the first day, you travel with the family wherever its diary takes it, across several countries.

We welcome CVs from physiotherapists based in Belgium with UK or European training who are open to relocation.

The work combines skilled manual therapy with movement re-education.

Soft tissue release and joint mobilisation prepare the body; neuromuscular work and corrective exercise make the change last.

You assess movement closely and adjust each session to how the principals feel that day.

Sessions take place in a private treatment room at the residence and wherever the family travels.

Requirements

Physiotherapy degree obtained in the UK or Europe, with current registration in the country where you trained.

Solid post-qualification experience in sports or musculoskeletal physiotherapy, with confident hands-on skills.

A background supporting elite athletes or high-profile clients will strengthen your application.

Confident with movement analysis, biomechanical assessment and corrective exercise.

Available to begin within six weeks, relocate on a single-status basis and travel at any time.

Fluent English, sound judgement and complete discretion under a strict NDA.

What matters is where you trained, not your nationality.

Benefits

From £60,000 a year gross, depending on experience.

Accommodation is provided free of charge, in or beside the residence.

Flights and travel are always paid for by the family.

Medical insurance is covered; professional indemnity insurance is not included.

Permanent employment with the family, with annual leave.

Visas for travel abroad are arranged and paid for by the family.

Time off and days off follow the family's diary, as is usual in private households.

The salary is agreed directly between the family and the clinician; each clinician should take advice from their own tax adviser on whether the income is taxable in their circumstances.

Engagement essentials

Every role is live-in and single-status: the clinician relocates alone.

Availability follows the family's diary, typically a six-day week with on-call cover.

Medical Staff Talent introduces and verifies clinicians. The engagement is contracted directly between the family and the clinician, and all local arrangements (visa, licensed entity, coordination with local clinics) remain with the family's own office and advisers.
