3. Talent Acquisition: Recruit, house, and train a workforce of 800+ associates, fostering a culture of genuine hospitality despite a challenging environment.
4. Security & Safety: Co-develop the property’s security architecture and crisis management plans, ensuring the safety of guests and staff without compromising the luxury experience.
5. Commercial Launch: Build relationships with the diplomatic community, NGOs, and regional corporate travel buyers to secure a strong opening pipeline.
The Ideal Candidate:
• 10+ years in senior leadership, with 3+ years as a GM.
