Medical Staff Talent
Sports Physiotherapist — Injury Prevention & Mobility, Private Family — Abu Dhabi
Requirements
Candidates must hold a physiotherapy qualification from the UK or Europe with current registration and proven experience in sports physiotherapy. The role requires the ability to relocate alone, travel at short notice, and maintain strict confidentiality.
Job Description
A private family in Abu Dhabi, the UAE, wishes to add a sports physiotherapist to its household staff.
It is a permanent, live-in appointment with the family, with annual leave.
Once you join, you move with the family continuously across several countries.
Applications are welcome from UK & European-trained physiotherapists based in the United Kingdom who are ready to relocate.
Your brief is to keep active principals mobile, resilient and free of avoidable injury.
Movement analysis and biomechanical assessment shape a clear injury-prevention plan.
Mobility work, joint mobilisation and proprioception training carry that plan through the week.
Sessions take place in a private treatment room at the residence and wherever the family travels.
Requirements
A physiotherapy qualification from the UK or Europe and current registration in your country of training.
Proven experience in sports physiotherapy, manual therapy and movement-based rehabilitation.
A background supporting elite athletes or high-profile clients will strengthen your application.
At ease with neuromuscular techniques, movement control and breathing and core work.
Able to start within six weeks, relocate alone and travel with the family at short notice.
Fluent English and calm, discreet conduct; a strict NDA applies.
What matters is where you trained, not your nationality.
Benefits
A salary from £60,000 a year gross, depending on experience.
Flights and travel are always paid for by the family.
Accommodation is free of charge throughout the appointment.
Medical insurance is covered; professional indemnity insurance is not included.
A permanent post with annual leave.
International travel visas are handled 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.
