The Chef de Partie is responsible for managing an assigned kitchen section within the all-day dining operation. Requirements typically include culinary training, previous experience in a hotel or professional restaurant kitchen, sound knowledge of food preparation, cooking methods, hygiene standards, HACCP principles and portion control. The successful candidate should be organised, reliable and able to work efficiently during busy service periods. Expectations include preparing consistent, high-quality dishes, maintaining cleanliness, controlling food waste, following recipes and presentation standards, supporting junior colleagues and communicating effectively with the Sous Chef and wider kitchen team. Flexibility to work shifts, weekends and public holidays is essential, along with a genuine commitment to Shangri-La's service and quality standards.

The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities across Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao, particularly in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan and other resort destinations. Hotels and restaurants regularly recruit chefs, service staff, housekeeping employees, supervisors and managers, although competition can be strong in popular islands. Filipino culture is welcoming, family-oriented and community-minded, with English widely used in workplaces. Lifestyle varies from busy urban living to relaxed coastal communities, with affordable local food, beaches and outdoor activities. Living costs are generally lower outside Manila, but island housing and transport can become expensive during peak tourism seasons. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work visa or permit; working on a tourist visa is not permitted. Applicants should confirm requirements with the employer and the Bureau of Immigration. Relocation planning should include accommodation, healthcare, insurance, banking, transport and emergency contacts.
