  • Coordinate and/or execute photo/video shoots, media visits, and influencer collaborations to strengthen the hotel’s brand image.
  • Track campaign performance and prepare reports on key marketing metrics.
  • Ensure all marketing initiatives maintain brand consistency and visual quality.

What We’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Marketing, Communications, or a related field.
  • 1–3 years of experience in marketing or digital communications, preferably within hospitality or a similar service industry.
  • Creative mindset with strong writing, design, and digital content skills.
  • Familiarity with social media management tools, Canva/Adobe Suite, and email marketing platforms.
