The Sports & Recreation Manager oversees the resort’s recreational activities, sports facilities, equipment, and guest experiences. Requirements typically include a degree or relevant training in sports management, hospitality, recreation, or a related field, together with several years of supervisory experience in a hotel, resort, club, or leisure environment. Candidates should have strong leadership, communication, organization, and customer-service skills. Knowledge of recreational safety procedures, activity planning, equipment maintenance, and team scheduling is expected. The role requires an energetic, approachable personality and the ability to coordinate activities for guests of different ages and abilities while maintaining high Shangri-La service standards.
Shangri-La is a leading luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong, operating hotels, resorts, and related businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other international destinations. Its properties are known for personalized service, comfortable accommodation, destination dining, wellness facilities, and carefully designed guest experiences. In the Philippines, Shangri-La operates prominent city and resort properties, including hotels in Manila and island destinations. The company emphasizes warm Asian hospitality, professional development, teamwork, and high standards in guest care. Employees may receive benefits such as meals, uniforms, accommodation or housing support at selected resorts, service charge, insurance, training, and career opportunities within the wider group, subject to the specific property and employment contract.
The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities across Luzon, Cebu, Palawan, Boracay, Bohol, and other tourism-focused islands. Resort roles in sports, recreation, diving, watersports, guest services, food and beverage, and housekeeping are commonly available, especially during busy travel seasons. Filipino culture is welcoming, family-oriented, and strongly service minded, while English is widely used in workplaces and daily life. Island living offers beaches, outdoor activities, relaxed communities, and lower living costs than major international cities, although transport, internet access, healthcare, and supplies can vary by location. Foreign nationals generally need an employer-sponsored work permit and an appropriate visa, while Filipino applicants need standard employment documents. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transport, insurance, work authorization, and seasonal conditions before relocating.
