Hydrotherapy Rehabilitation Physiotherapist — Private Family, Doha

A private family in Doha has asked Medical Staff Talent to introduce a UK & European-trained Physiotherapist with hydrotherapy experience. The family has built a hydrotherapy pool for a family member with long-term joint problems and wants a physiotherapist to lead the programme.

Expect regular travel with the family, including summers in Europe and periods on the family yacht. The rhythm follows the family rather than a rota: a six-day week, with availability at any hour when needed.

The Mandate

• Hydrotherapy-led rehabilitation, combined with land-based strength and mobility work.
• Pool safety and session protocols agreed with the household team.
• Measured progress reviewed with the family physician and rheumatologist.
• Maintaining the programme when the family travels.
• Strict observance of household protocol and the family’s NDA.

Requirements

• Physiotherapy degree from a UK or European institution, with aquatic or hydrotherapy-based rehabilitation experience alongside land-based practice.
• At least 6 years of post-qualification clinical experience.
• Full registration, in good standing, with a UK or European regulator.
• Experience with Halliwick or Bad Ragaz methods is valued.
• Fluent English and proven discretion in private settings.
• Able to start within six weeks of an offer.
• Able to relocate alone (live-in, single-status) and to travel anywhere in the world with the family, often at short notice.

Package

• From £60,000 a year gross, depending on experience.
• Medical insurance is covered; professional indemnity insurance is not included.
• Flights and travel are always paid for by the family.
• 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.
• Fully free accommodation within the family’s residence.
• Permanent, with annual leave and a contract that is renewed every year.

Scope of Engagement

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.
