The Finance Manager is expected to oversee the resort’s financial operations, including budgeting, forecasting, month-end closing, financial reporting, cash control, audits, payroll coordination and compliance with Marriott and Thai regulations. Candidates typically need a degree in accounting, finance or a related discipline, several years of hotel or hospitality finance experience, and strong knowledge of accounting systems and Microsoft Excel. Professional accounting qualifications are advantageous. The role requires accuracy, confidentiality, commercial awareness and the ability to explain financial results clearly to department leaders. The successful candidate should be organised, ethical, deadline-focused and comfortable working in a multicultural resort environment while supporting management with sound financial advice.
JW Marriott is Marriott International’s luxury hospitality brand, recognised for refined service, thoughtful design and strong standards in guest experience. JW Marriott Phuket Chalong Bay Resort & Spa is associated with the brand’s presence in Phuket, one of Thailand’s leading leisure destinations. A resort finance team typically supports rooms, food and beverage, spa, events, purchasing and overall commercial operations. Employees work within Marriott’s international systems and service culture, with opportunities to collaborate across departments and potentially build a long-term hospitality career. Resort benefits may include meals, uniforms, medical coverage, service charge, staff accommodation or transport, and access to Marriott’s global employee travel programme, although the exact package depends on the employment contract and local policy.
Phuket offers strong employment opportunities in hotels, resorts, restaurants, tourism, wellness, marine activities, sales and finance. Chalong is a lively, practical area with marinas, shops and access to beaches, while quieter coastal communities provide a slower lifestyle. Thai culture values respect, politeness, family and gracious service; learning basic Thai phrases is helpful. Living costs vary, with housing and international schools costing more in popular areas. Foreign employees normally need a Thai work permit and a Non-Immigrant B visa, sponsored and processed with the employer before starting work. Bring certified qualifications and allow time for document checks. Relocation is easiest when the employer explains accommodation, transport, healthcare, tax, visa renewals and dependent arrangements. Phuket has an international airport, hospitals, supermarkets and active expatriate communities, but traffic can be heavy. Respect local customs, dress modestly at temples and treat the island’s environment responsibly.
