We are supporting a hospitality investment and asset management group in Oman with the appointment of a Technical Asset Manager.

This is an excellent opportunity for a technical hospitality professional to join an owner-side asset management function and support the maintenance, condition, technical performance, and long-term value of a hotel portfolio.

The Technical Asset Manager will be responsible for planning, monitoring, and controlling maintenance, facilities operations, and technical asset management activities across operating hotel assets and shareholder properties.

The role will work closely with hotel operators, General Managers, engineering teams, consultants, contractors, service providers, specialist vendors, and internal stakeholders to ensure that hotel assets are well maintained, compliant, cost-controlled, and aligned with ownership objectives.

This is a portfolio-level technical asset management role. The successful candidate will support CAPEX planning, Property Improvement Plans, asset condition reviews, lifecycle maintenance planning, contractor performance, technical reporting, and operational readiness across existing assets, renovations, handovers, and hotel pre-opening or transition phases.

• Ensure technical, safety, brand, operator, and asset condition standards are maintained during hotel operations, renovations, handovers, and pre-opening phases.
• Monitor contractor, consultant, vendor, and service provider performance against agreed scope, SLAs, safety requirements, quality standards, timelines, and cost controls.
• Monitor maintenance costs and technical performance to identify cost drivers, efficiency opportunities, service gaps, and required corrective actions.
• Ensure compliance with local regulations, HSE standards, statutory requirements, and internal policies across maintenance, technical, project, and facilities-related activities.
• Prepare regular technical asset reports covering property condition, maintenance risks, CAPEX progress, contractor performance, compliance matters, and recommended action plans.
• Support hotel pre-opening, handover, and transition activities by coordinating with development teams, operators, consultants, contractors, and internal stakeholders to ensure technical readiness and smooth transition into operations.
