The Chef de Cuisine leads the culinary operation at Sage Grill, overseeing menu execution, food quality, kitchen standards, costs, and team performance. Candidates should have substantial experience in an upscale hotel, resort, or fine-dining kitchen, strong knowledge of international and local cuisine, and proven leadership skills. Responsibilities include menu planning, purchasing, inventory control, food safety, staff scheduling, training, and maintaining consistent presentation and service standards. Shangri-La expects a hands-on, creative, commercially aware chef who can motivate a diverse team, manage pressure, control costs, and deliver memorable guest experiences. Culinary qualifications and experience with HACCP or similar food-safety systems are advantageous.

The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities across Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Manila, and other destinations, particularly in hotels, resorts, restaurants, tourism, diving, and events. Cebu and Boracay combine strong tourism economies with international workplaces, while Palawan offers a quieter resort lifestyle. Filipino culture is welcoming, family-oriented, and community-minded; English is widely used in business and hotels. Living costs vary, with resort islands often charging more for housing and imported goods. Employees should expect a tropical climate, ferry or domestic-flight travel between islands, and occasional weather disruptions during the rainy season. Filipino citizens need no visa to work domestically. Foreign candidates normally require employer sponsorship, an Alien Employment Permit, and an appropriate work visa, commonly a 9(g) pre-arranged employment visa. Accommodation, meals, transport, medical cover, and flights may be included in resort employment packages, so these benefits should be confirmed before relocating.
