Private Physician — Personal Physician Appointment — Abu Dhabi

A discreet vacancy exists with a private family in Abu Dhabi for a UK & European-trained Private Physician for a long-term, in-residence appointment. Once the household moves on to the Côte d'Azur for the summer, you continue the same precise routine of clinical assessment abroad. 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. Our part is to introduce and verify the private physician; after that the contract is between you and the family alone.

Requirements

• The essential foundation is a medical degree and current registration as a family medicine physician (GP), recognised across UK and European systems. 2 years spent in clinical practice is required, assessed through references and a structured interview. We consider only UK or European training for the private physician post, checked against the issuing body. Excellent spoken and written English is required, and nothing about the family leaves the household. Extended periods away from Abu Dhabi are part of the post, so flexibility is assessed at interview.

Benefits

• Remuneration for the private physician is £240,000 per year, with accommodation and travel included, gross, set to match the standards the family requires. 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. In Abu Dhabi you live within the family's residence: the role is live-in and single-status. The appointment is long-term, with a stable contract, with continuity for both sides. You sign the private physician contract directly with the family, and its terms are agreed before you travel. Engagement essentials Availability to begin within six weeks of offer. 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.
