The Executive Housekeeper leads the housekeeping department at Rixos Bab Al Bahr, ensuring guest rooms, public areas, linen operations, and related facilities meet luxury-hospitality standards. Requirements typically include substantial housekeeping experience in an upscale hotel or resort, previous supervisory or departmental leadership experience, strong knowledge of cleaning procedures, hygiene, room inspections, budgeting, inventory control, and staff scheduling. Familiarity with hotel systems and quality standards is advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to be organised, guest-focused, commercially aware, and confident managing a diverse team. Strong communication, problem-solving, coaching, and cost-control skills are essential, along with the flexibility to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays in a busy resort environment.
Rixos Bab Al Bahr is an upscale all-inclusive resort in Ras Al Khaimah, United Arab Emirates, operated under the Rixos brand and part of Accor. Located on the beachfront at Al Marjan Island, the resort is known for its extensive accommodation, restaurants, bars, pools, entertainment, family facilities, spa services, and leisure activities. Its all-inclusive model attracts international holidaymakers and requires consistently high standards across guest service, food and beverage, housekeeping, wellness, and recreation. Rixos properties generally promote energetic service, multicultural teamwork, guest engagement, and strong operational discipline. Employees may work in a large resort environment with opportunities to develop within Accor’s global hospitality network. Benefits vary by contract, but roles in the UAE commonly include accommodation or a housing allowance, meals, transportation, health insurance, annual leave, and return airfare.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island country, although this role is based on Al Marjan Island, a man-made island destination in Ras Al Khaimah. Hospitality offers many opportunities in hotels, resorts, restaurants, events, tourism, wellness, and entertainment, particularly in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Ras Al Khaimah. The culture blends Emirati traditions with a highly international working population; modest dress and respect for local customs are important. Lifestyle options include beaches, desert trips, shopping, watersports, dining, and outdoor activities, while summers are extremely hot. Most overseas employees need employer-sponsored residence and work visas; the company normally arranges medical checks, Emirates ID processing, and permits. Before relocating, confirm accommodation, transport, insurance, working hours, leave, gratuity, and flight benefits. Living costs vary, with employer-provided housing significantly reducing expenses.
