The Company owns a prime mixed-use asset comprising a commercial Office Tower and a Hotel managed by an International Operator. We are seeking a strategic IT Manager to lead the technology infrastructure for the entire development.

This is not a desktop support role. It is a Project Management and Systems Architecture role. The successful candidate will oversee the procurement and installation of all major building systems (Servers, Networks, PMS, CCTV) during the Hotel’s pre-opening phase and manage the Office Tower’s digital operations thereafter.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Pre-Opening Project Management (Immediate Priority)

• Infrastructure Rollout: Lead the procurement and installation of the core server room, structured cabling, and network switches for both the Hotel and Office Tower.

• System Procurement: Work with the Hotel Operator to validate the "Operating Supplies & Equipment" (OS&E) budget for IT. Ensure software and hardware specifications are cost-effective and meet international brand standards.

• Critical Systems Setup: Oversee the implementation of the Property Management System (PMS) (e.g., Opera), Point-of-Sale (POS) systems, and PABX (Telephone) networks.

2. Asset Management & Integration

• Building Management System (BMS): Manage the IT integration of the BMS to ensure the Building Manager has real-time data on electricity, water, and HVAC performance.

• Security Infrastructure: Oversee the digital side of security, including the server storage and networking for the CCTV systems and Access Control (Keycard) systems for the Office Tower.

• Network Segmentation: Ensure secure and separate logical networks (VLANs) for the Hotel Guests, Hotel Admin, and Office Tower Tenants to ensure cybersecurity.

3. Vendor & Contract Management

• ISP Negotiations: Consolidate internet service contracts for the entire building to achieve bulk-rate pricing.

• Maintenance Contracts: Manage Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMCs) for hardware and software licensing.

• Tenant Support: Serve as the technical point of contact for new Office Tower tenants regarding their connectivity requirements during fit-out.

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or Network Engineering.

• Experience:

  • Minimum 5–7 years of IT management experience.

  • Mandatory: Experience in Hospitality IT (Hotel Pre-Opening experience is highly preferred). Must understand Hotel PMS and POS environments.

  • Experience with Building Management Systems (BMS) and large-scale CCTV networks is an advantage.

• Technical Skills: Strong knowledge of Server Virtualization, Network Security (Firewalls), and ERP integration.

• Language: Professional fluency in English is required to coordinate with the International Operator’s technical teams.

Key Competencies:

• Commercial Mindset: Ability to challenge the Operator on IT costs

• Project Leadership: Ability to manage third-party cabling contractors and system integrators within a tight timeline
