The first woman to lead the Mandarin Oriental Singapore

Jill Goh is breaking ceilings in her hospitality career. She recently earned herself the title of first woman to lead the 36-year-old Mandarin Oriental Singapore

Goh is no stranger to the luxury hotel brand or the Singapore property itself. She has held various roles within Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group since 1993. She served as resident manager both at Mandarin Oriental Singapore and Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London until 2013. She then became corporate operations manager for Asia, based in Hong Kong.

"I am delighted to return to where I first embarked on my career with Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group in 1993. Assuming the role as the property's first female general manager proves to myself that every individual has the capacity to achieve your dream regardless of one's background, gender, nationality, etc. We should not allow gender to take away opportunities and set a boundary to our dream as I always believe, let the sky be your limit and the world as your oyster," she said in an email interview with Hotel News Now.
