Ramada Ajman announces internal promotions

Ramada Hotels & Suites Ajman has promoted Mazen Khadour to executive chef and Faheem Yousaf to environment manager.

Mazen Khadour, who has more than 11 years’ hospitality experience and specialises in food production and restaurant operations, joined the property in 2011 as banquet sous chef.

In his new role, Khadour will oversee all kitchen operations including the all day dining restaurant, Orchid, and R Cafe, in addition to room service and special events.

Faheem Yousaf, who was previously chief steward at the property, was promoted to environment manager owing to his keen interest in the hotel’s Zero Landfill project.

As the environment manager, Yousaf will coordinate all aspects of the project including resource use, risk assessment, and employee involvement for the hotel’s environmental initiatives.

Ramada Hotels & Suites Ajman general manager Iftikhar Hamdani commented: “I would like to congratulate Chef Mazen and Mr. Yousaf on their promotion. Their dedication and commitment plus the exemplary attitude to learning and good rapport with their colleagues were recognised by the management. As they take on their new roles we expect them to lead their team and support our company’s growth. I hope this promotion will also encourage other hotel staffs that have great potential to work hard and reach their goals.
