Hydrotherapy Rehabilitation Physiotherapist — Private Family, Riyadh

Medical Staff Talent is searching for a UK & European-trained Physiotherapist with hydrotherapy experience for a private family based in Riyadh. The family’s residence includes a therapy pool that has rarely been used for rehabilitation; the family now wants a physiotherapist to change that.

Expect regular travel with the family, including summers in Europe and periods on the family yacht. As is usual for household appointments in the Gulf, the family expects availability around the clock and a six-day working week.

The Mandate

• Aquatic rehabilitation programmes for family members with joint, back or post-surgical problems.
• Integrating pool and gym work into a single, measurable plan.
• Pool protocols and supervision agreed with the household team.
• Continuity of the programme when the family is away.
• 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.
• ATACP membership or an equivalent aquatic therapy qualification 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

• £70,000–£105,000 per annum gross, depending on experience.
• 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.
• The family arranges and pays for the visas needed for travel abroad.

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.
