Joerg Zobel has been appointed chief operating officer of the Rosewood Hotel Group.

In his role, he will be responsible for the hotel group's global operations across its four brands: Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, New World Hotels & Resorts, Asaya, and Carlyle & Co.

"We've chartered a new path for Rosewood across multiple touchpoints of the business, and we are confident Joerg will drive our operations to deliver on this vision."
