The Hygiene & Quality Executive supports hotel-wide food safety, hygiene, sanitation and quality-assurance standards. Requirements typically include a diploma or degree in food science, hospitality, environmental health or a related field, together with experience in hotel food safety, HACCP systems, audits and staff training. The successful candidate should understand local health regulations, maintain accurate inspection records, investigate non-compliance and work confidently with culinary, stewarding and operational teams. Shangri-La would expect strong attention to detail, communication and coaching skills, practical problem-solving ability, and a proactive approach to protecting guest and employee wellbeing. Relevant HACCP, ISO 22000 or food-safety certification would be an advantage.
Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts is a leading luxury hospitality group founded in Asia and recognised for warm Asian-inspired service. The company operates hotels, resorts and related hospitality businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe and other international markets. Its properties focus on personalised guest experiences, premium accommodation, restaurants, recreation and wellness facilities, while placing strong emphasis on service quality, responsible operations and colleague development. In the Maldives, Shangri-La’s Villingili Resort & Spa is a large island resort in Addu Atoll, combining luxury villas, marine activities, dining and wellness experiences. Resort roles generally provide an international working environment, structured standards and opportunities to work with colleagues and guests from many countries.
The Maldives offers resort and tourism opportunities in hospitality, food and beverage, culinary operations, housekeeping, marine activities, engineering, wellness, finance and guest services. Resort islands provide a structured lifestyle with accommodation, meals and workplace facilities, while local islands have a more community-based way of life. Maldivian culture is shaped by Islam, island traditions and strong seafood-based cuisine; modest dress and respectful behaviour are expected outside resort areas. Employees normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and entry approval before starting work, with medical checks and document verification commonly required. Employers usually arrange accommodation and meals, but contracts and benefits vary, so candidates should confirm airfare, insurance, leave and gratuity terms. Relocation involves adapting to tropical weather, distance from family and limited shopping or nightlife on smaller islands. Male is the main transport and administrative hub.
