For Hospitals

Every candidate is assessed against your regulator first.

We recruit physicians from Tier 1 countries — Germany, Austria, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, the Nordics — for hospitals in the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. A large share of our network is Arabic-speaking and Muslim, which shortens the cultural distance considerably.

Why Tier 1 matters to your licensing office

A Tier 1 specialty certificate carries the highest recognition under the unified Professional Qualification Requirements: Specialist with no additional experience, Consultant after two years. No equivalency examination, no downgrade, no argument with the regulator. The shortlist you receive is a list of physicians who can be licensed at the grade the post requires.

How we work
  • We assess the file against the destination regulator before presentation — certificate, post-specialty years, registration, good standing, and procedural volume where the role is interventional.
  • No candidate is presented without their explicit written release. Names are disclosed at that point, not before.
  • Our fee is 20% of first-year basic salary. Terms are agreed in writing before the first profile is presented.
  • Direct engagement with the department as well as talent acquisition, so the clinical requirement and the commercial process stay in step.
Our fee
  • One clear fee
    20% of first-year basic salary, agreed in writing before the first profile is presented.
  • A six-month replacement guarantee
    If a physician leaves within six months, the maximum probation period under Saudi labour law, we find a replacement free of charge.
  • Physicians never pay
    No licensing packages, relocation fees or paid eligibility checks. The hospital pays, in every market.
  • Part of every fee is given as sadaqah
    Through registered charities, and the hospital receives the receipt.
Beyond physicians

The same framework applies to the functions that carry a hospital: finance and revenue cycle, medical technology and clinical information systems, and operational and quality leadership. Different roles, same discipline about verification.

Visiting and proctoring

Where a permanent appointment is not the right first step — a new structural heart programme, a service being built, a technique being introduced — we place senior European clinicians on structured visiting and proctoring arrangements. Short, defined, and often the beginning of something permanent.

We are a registered supplier to a leading healthcare group in Abu Dhabi, and our Saudi entity is in licensing with the Ministry of Investment (MISA). We do not publish client names or logos.
