Radisson Hotel Group has appointed Daaliah Meyer as the Cluster Director of Marketing & Communications for Nofa Riyadh, A Radisson Collection Resort, and Radisson Blu Hotel & Residence, Riyadh Diplomatic Quarter.

 

It has also welcomed Ibrahim Tabet as the new Executive Chef of Nofa Riyadh, a Radisson Collection Resort.

 

Meyer began her career in Cape Town, launching her own marketing agency that handled everything from photoshoot styling to full-scale digital campaigns for local fashion and food brands. Her entrepreneurial grit and ability to scale creative solutions quickly led her into the corporate space — joining regional tech brand The Entertainer, where she rose through the ranks from Social Media Manager to KSA Market Lead in under two years. There, she led market expansions, launched high-performing campaigns, and built the company’s first fully Saudi creative team.

 

Now at the Radisson Hotel Group, Meyer is driven by a desire to blend global standards with authentic local storytelling. Her vision for Nofa Riyadh is to position it as Saudi Arabia’s most iconic luxury resort — where safari adventures meet five-star sophistication. Simultaneously, she aims to solidify Radisson Blu Diplomatic Quarter as the premier address for business travel in Riyadh.

 

“I’m driven by the challenge of turning underutilised potential into iconic destinations,” says Meyer. “Marketing is more than campaigns—it’s about capturing hearts, empowering teams, and creating brands people feel. I’m all in.”

 

Anna-Marie Dowling, General Manager of Nofa Riyadh, a Radisson Collection Resort, added: “Daaliah brings a rare mix of entrepreneurial edge and strategic vision. As two female leaders working to shape the future of Saudi hospitality, I’m incredibly excited about the impact we’ll create together.”

 

Her appointment marks another step forward in Radisson Hotel Group’s commitment to empowering women in leadership and fostering innovative, guest-centric hospitality across the region. 

 

New Executive Chef

With over 18 years of experience in some of the region’s most prestigious kitchens, Tabet’s culinary journey has spanned Four Seasons Damascus, The Ritz-Carlton KSA, Art Rotana Bahrain, and JW Marriott Riyadh. His reputation was solidified at The Ritz-Carlton, where he launched the first Saudi Heritage Dessert Tasting Menu, an initiative that not only celebrated local ingredients but also significantly boosted dessert sales. His most recent leadership role with FAS Hospitality marked his evolution into a strategic culinary leader, spearheading the transformation of underperforming outlets, negotiating farm-direct supply chains, and introducing sustainable innovations like zero-waste iftars.

 

Now at the helm of Nofa Riyadh’s culinary operations, Chef Tabet oversees all dining experiences across the resort, from destination restaurants and banqueting to in-villa dining and the resort’s homegrown farm. More than just an operational lead, he sees his role as a curator of stories, each dish a narrative shaped by local soil, seasonal rhythms, and global inspiration. 

 

“I chose to lead Nofa’s kitchens because this is a place where the land tells a story, and I want every dish we serve to honour that. Real luxury doesn’t arrive by truck; it’s grown here, raised here, and brought to life on the plate,” he says.

 

Dowling added: “Chef Ibrahim brings a rare combination of technical precision and soulful creativity to the table. His leadership reflects our shared commitment to redefining luxury through culture, community, and craftsmanship. As a proud advocate for nurturing talent from within the Kingdom, he plays a vital role in shaping the next chapter of Saudi Arabia’s hospitality story.” - TradeArabia News Service
