New Delhi: Jaisalmer Marriott Resort and Spa, part of Marriott International’s portfolio in India, has appointed Pooja Gauur as its new Director of Marketing.

The resort is located in the Thar Desert, near historic forts and sand dunes. At Jaisalmer Marriott Resort & Spa, her role will include enhancing the property’s global visibility, developing guest experience strategies, and working on brand initiatives that seek to establish the resort as a recognised desert retreat.

She joined Marriott International in 2019 and has since led marketing and pre-opening initiatives at several properties, including Jaipur Marriott, Udaipur Marriott, Fairfield by Marriott Jaipur, Courtyard by Marriott Bhopal and Katra Marriott Resort & Spa.
