Mövenpick Grand Al Bustan Hotel & Convention Centre Dubai is proud to welcome Mr. André Grove as our new Food & Beverage Manager — a passionate leader whose journey through hospitality is both inspiring and deeply grounded in people-first values.
Born and raised near Cape Town, South Africa, André’s love for the industry began at just 14 while working in his family’s restaurant. After high school, he traveled to the USA, sharpening his culinary skills as a pizza maker and griller, all while embracing new cultures and experiences.
André holds a diploma in Sport, Sales & Marketing Management and was a proud cricket representative of Stellenbosch University. His professional journey truly took off in the UK, where he worked at a hotel in Exeter — growing from pot washer to guest relations officer in just two years.
In 2007, André moved to Dubai and joined Rmal Hospitality as a waiter, gaining experience across top brands like Wagamama and Trader Vic’s. He later joined Southern Sun, where he helped launch the iconic Nezesaussi Grill. Under his leadership, the venue earned several titles at the Time Out Awards — including Best Sports Bar and Best Restaurant Team from 2009 to 2011.
His career continued at Emirates Golf Club in 2011, managing F&B for global sporting legends like Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy. In 2015, he joined Emaar, expanded Nezesaussi to Dubai Marina, and led his team to multiple awards. He was also shortlisted for Restaurant Manager of the Year by Hospitality Awards Africa & Middle East.
Promoted to F&B Manager in 2018 and later Operations Manager for Arabian Ranches Golf Club, André was named Leader of the Year at Manzil Hotel and recognized for achieving the highest F&B quality scores within Emaar.
In 2024, he led his team to win Best F&B Team (59 Club Awards), opened a third Nezesaussi Grill, and was honored as Best GM of the Year, Top 30 Most Influential Managers, and Most Popular Manager at the Hozpitality Awards.
Now with us, André brings not just experience — but heart, vision, and the drive to elevate every dining moment. Here’s to a bright new chapter at Mövenpick Grand Al Bustan.
