The People Development Manager is responsible for strengthening employee capability, engagement and career growth across the resort. Requirements typically include a degree or diploma in human resources, hospitality management, education or a related field, along with several years of training, learning and development experience, preferably in a luxury hotel or resort. The candidate should be confident designing training plans, coordinating onboarding, delivering workshops, monitoring performance development and supporting succession planning. Strong communication, presentation, coaching and organizational skills are essential. Experience with learning systems, competency frameworks and Maldivian hospitality standards is advantageous. The role requires cultural awareness, discretion, initiative and the ability to work effectively with colleagues from diverse nationalities in a remote island environment.
Kuredhivaru Resort & Spa Maldives is a luxury island resort in Noonu Atoll, Maldives, operating within the international Accor hospitality network. The resort provides premium accommodation, restaurants, bars, spa services, excursions and recreational experiences in a secluded tropical setting. Its operation depends on a multicultural team delivering personalized guest service while maintaining high standards in hospitality, safety and sustainability. As an Accor property, it benefits from global hotel expertise, structured brand standards and employee development resources. Resort employees commonly receive benefits such as staff accommodation, meals, service charge eligibility and access to internal training and career opportunities, although packages vary by position and contract. The People Development Manager supports the resort’s long-term talent strategy by helping colleagues build skills, improve performance and progress professionally.
The Maldives offers employment opportunities mainly in resorts, hotels, restaurants, diving, marine activities, aviation, construction, healthcare and corporate services. Resort work is highly international and can provide accommodation, meals, service charge and a close-knit community lifestyle, but working hours may be long and locations are often remote. Maldivian culture is friendly and strongly influenced by Islam, so modest clothing and respect for local customs are important, particularly on inhabited islands. Alcohol is generally restricted to licensed resorts. Foreign employees must obtain an employer-sponsored employment approval and work visa before legally working; requirements include a valid passport, medical checks and approved employment documents. Relocation usually involves flights from Malé to the resort by seaplane or domestic flight and speedboat. Employees should confirm contract terms, insurance, internet access, leave, transfer arrangements and whether accommodation is shared before accepting an offer.
