About The Position

A private family in Dubai, UAE, is seeking a sports physiotherapist for a permanent, live-in appointment. The clinician will provide one-to-one, hands-on care at the family’s residence and while travelling continuously with them across several countries. The role is suited to a physiotherapist who values precise assessment, careful loading and consistent follow-up, with experience in elite sport or professional teams considered directly relevant. Daily work combines manual therapy, assisted stretching and corrective exercise with injury-prevention planning. The clinician should be comfortable using neuromuscular techniques, movement-control approaches, and breathing and core work. The engagement is contracted directly between the family and the clinician; Medical Staff Talent introduces and verifies candidates. The family’s office and advisers handle local arrangements, including visas, licensed entities and coordination with local clinics. The role is live-in and single-status, requiring the clinician to relocate alone. Availability follows the family’s diary and typically involves a six-day week with on-call cover. Rest days and leave are planned around the family’s schedule. Candidates should be able to begin within six weeks and travel at any time. The position offers annual leave, accommodation, paid flights and travel, and medical insurance. Professional indemnity insurance is not included. Salary is agreed directly between the family and clinician, and candidates are advised to consult their own tax adviser regarding taxability.
