About this role
A private family in Abu Dhabi is appointing a UK & European-trained Private Physician to a long-term, confidential role. Discretion is the first requirement of this private physician appointment, because trust within the residence is built slowly. Care continues quietly beyond Abu Dhabi, including the family's summers and international trips, so the family sees the same face and the same standard throughout. When you travel with the family, all local arrangements (visa, licensing and coordination with local clinics) remain with the family's own office and advisers. The family holds the contract for the Abu Dhabi post; we step back once the introduction has been made.
Requirements
- Full UK or European registration as a family medicine physician (GP), with nothing outstanding. You bring 3+ years of clinical medicine behind you, ideally close to families or private clients. A UK or European qualification is the starting point for this Abu Dhabi post; your certificates are checked against the issuing body. Clear English is required day to day, together with an NDA you will sign before deployment. You must be comfortable moving between residences; being unobtrusive in every setting is part of the role.
Benefits
- A gross £240,000 per year, with accommodation and travel included, is offered for the Abu Dhabi appointment, set to reward a quiet, dependable tenure. 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. The family arranges and funds your accommodation. Home flights and paid leave are covered by the family; stability of tenure is part of what the family offers. Costs of travel and accommodation abroad fall to the family, not to you, so the arrangements stay simple and private. Engagement essentials Availability to begin within six weeks of offer. Live-in and single-status: the role suits clinicians who relocate alone, with full flexibility to travel worldwide with the family at short notice. 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.
