AURIC LI, owners’ representative of Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai, has recently been named Owner’s Representative of the Year at the Hotelier Awards ceremony in Shanghai. Organized by Rivera Events, this is the major benchmark celebration of the year for hotels throughout China.

Li’s hospitality career started in Shenzhen in the early 1990s when the Shenzhen Economic Zone was only beginning to develop.

He spent a decade learning every facet of front-of-house management from front desk manager to front office manager before he joined OCT’s International Hotel Management Co. where he was involved in pre-opening and overall operation of a number of different hotels.

His background of successful operations experience made Li a natural choice as the owners’ representative when he joined Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai in 2013. He was closely involved in every phase of the renovation of the original Nanhai Hotel as a separate wing of Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai.

In addition to a degree in English, Li earned a hotel and tourism management master’s degree at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Among his diverse honors, Li was appointed a judge of star hotel properties in Guangdong Province.

Li has played a major role in the numerous awards garnered by the Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai.

His wide-ranging hotel management experience shows in his full support for every aspect of the hotel including human resources, business development, engineering and security, as well as finance.

Thanks to his professional management and coordination, Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai has achieved remarkable results in every field from operational performance to brand awareness and reputation.

Li has fully supported Hilton Shenzhen Shekou Nanhai in its quest for outstanding results. Some notable areas that benefited from his input include drafting the detailed KPI evaluation index for the hotel as the guide for year-end staff bonus.
