Sports & Manual Therapy Physiotherapist — Elite Athlete Experience Valued, Private Family — Abu Dhabi

For a private family in Abu Dhabi, the UAE, Medical Staff Talent is seeking a UK & European-trained sports physiotherapist.

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

Once in post, the clinician travels continuously with the family across several countries.

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

The family values the habits of high-performance sport: precise assessment, careful loading and consistent follow-up.

Your days blend manual therapy, assisted stretching and corrective exercise with injury-prevention planning.

A background supporting elite athletes or professional teams translates directly to this household.

Treatment happens at home and on the road, always one-to-one.

Requirements

A physiotherapy qualification from the UK or Europe and current registration in your country of training.

Several years of sports or musculoskeletal practice with a strong manual therapy component.

Experience with elite athletes, professional teams or high-profile private clients is a strong advantage.

Comfortable designing injury-prevention, mobility and proprioception programmes.

Able to start within six weeks, relocate alone and travel with the family at short notice.

Excellent English and the discretion the household expects; a strict NDA applies.

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.

A permanent appointment 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.

The family's diary sets the rhythm of the day, so total flexibility on hours and destinations is expected.

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.
