Courtyard by Marriott Mumbai International Airport has announced changes to its senior management team, marking a realignment of departmental leadership. Effective June 9, 2025, the hotel has appointed Pramod Dwivedi as Director of Food & Beverage and welcomed back Taraka Kubal as Executive Housekeeper.
The appointments come at a time when hospitality businesses across Mumbai are navigating a competitive and evolving market. With growing emphasis on operational efficiency and elevated guest experiences, the restructuring is seen as part of a broader strategy to reinforce core service areas.
Pramod Dwivedi steps into the role of Director of Food & Beverage with considerable experience in managing culinary operations within the Marriott network and other international brands. His responsibilities will include overseeing dining operations, driving food and beverage innovation, and ensuring quality standards across outlets.
Meanwhile, Taraka Kubal returns to the property as Executive Housekeeper, a role in which she has previously served. Her familiarity with the hotel’s operating systems and standards is expected to support a seamless transition and reinforce the consistency of housekeeping services. With a background in room operations and a track record within the brand, her return indicates a continuity in maintaining service benchmarks.
Both leaders bring an understanding of Marriott’s brand values and operational protocols, which may prove valuable as the hotel looks to navigate service expectations and industry shifts. The reappointments suggest a focus on strengthening departmental leadership with individuals who possess not only functional expertise but also a prior understanding of the property’s culture and demands.
The hospitality sector in Mumbai remains highly competitive, with international and domestic chains vying for market share. Against this backdrop, hotels are increasingly turning to leadership with proven performance histories and internal alignment to meet business goals.
While the operational impact of these leadership changes will unfold over time, the move underscores Courtyard by Marriott’s intent to adapt and refine its internal structures in response to evolving guest expectations and service delivery challenges.
