Role summary
Written by MyIslandJob from the job title and employer. See the employer's page for the full description.
The Duty Manager oversees daily hotel operations during assigned shifts, ensuring smooth front-office service, guest satisfaction, and effective coordination between departments. Requirements typically include hotel or hospitality experience, strong communication and problem-solving skills, supervisory ability, professional presentation, and proficiency in English; knowledge of hotel systems is advantageous. The candidate is expected to handle guest concerns, support colleagues, monitor service standards, manage incidents, complete shift reports, and make sound decisions when senior managers are unavailable. Flexibility to work rotating shifts, weekends, and public holidays is essential. Marriott experience or familiarity with international service standards would be beneficial.
Can I work in Thailand?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: The employer applies online (4 Thai staff per foreigner), then a Non-B visa; extending your stay wants about THB 50,000 a month, far above line-job pay.
Watch for: Massage, beauty, guiding, driving and clerical jobs are closed to foreigners; a tourist or Destination Thailand Visa does not allow work for a Thai business.
Official source: Thai Government Public Relations Department: e-Work Permit for foreign workers. Checked November 2026.
What the job usually comes with in Thailand
Usual for Thailand, varies by employer. Checked November 2026.
| Housing | Usually not in Bangkok; dorms at some island resorts; an allowance for senior staff |
|---|---|
| Meals | Staff canteen |
| Flights | Senior packages only |
| Service charge | Shared among staff; no law sets the split, and the amount varies by hotel (ask before you accept) |
| Contract | 1 to 2 years; probation often 119 days, as severance is due from day 120 |
| Leave | At least 6 days after 1 year and 13 public holidays (by law); 48-hour week, 1 rest day |
| Income tax | 0% up to THB 150,000 a year, then 5% to 35%; 5% social security capped at THB 875 a month (2026) |
Senior staff often get more than line staff, for example a single room or a yearly home flight. Ask the employer what the job includes before you accept.
Guidance, not legal advice. Rules change; your employer confirms the details for your case.
