Justin Jabara grew up in and around hotels, his first job waiting tables, delivering room service and working as a banquet prep cook at the Christiana Hilton in Delaware. He went on to graduate from Johnson and Wales in Providence, R.I., with a degree in Hotel Management. Over the years, Justin Jabara grew his career holding numerous positions across the portfolio and blazed a strong operational track record of success. He made the jump to vice president of development and acquisitions six years ago to start working on the other side of the business. Justin Jabara led the growth of the portfolio at an impressive rate. Not only did the portfolio prosper, but many new partnerships were formed, and creative joint ventures established. With all this progression and change, Justin Jabara remains steadfast on one key cultural pillar: “We have been, and always will be, in the people business. The better the people, the better the business. He learned what partnership really means, first from his grandfather Ted Jabara and Arthur Meyer (Bill’s dad), and then from his father Richard and Bill. A partnership must be a win-win. Our financial partners, employees, and our guests are all forms of partnerships. We strive to create great success for all we serve. We will never walk away from treating people as our most important asset.” In January of 2020 Justin accepted the promotion to President of Meyer Jabara Hotels.
