The Restaurant Manager will oversee the daily operation of the Chinese cuisine restaurant, ensuring outstanding food quality, guest service, hygiene, and commercial performance. Requirements typically include several years of restaurant management experience, preferably in an upscale hotel or Chinese restaurant, strong knowledge of Chinese cuisine and service standards, staff leadership ability, and good communication skills in English.

The successful candidate is expected to manage scheduling, training, inventory, cost control, guest feedback, and compliance with health and safety regulations while maintaining Shangri-La’s luxury service standards.
Shangri-La is a luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong, operating hotels, resorts, residences, and related businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other international destinations. The company is known for personalized service, distinctive local experiences, elegant properties, and its Asian-inspired approach to hospitality. Shangri-La hotels commonly provide restaurants, bars, wellness facilities, conference services, and leisure amenities. In the United Arab Emirates, the group operates high-end properties serving business and leisure travelers, with a strong focus on guest satisfaction, employee development, operational excellence, and cultural hospitality. Employees generally work in an international environment and are expected to demonstrate professionalism, warmth, teamwork, and attention to detail.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, including Dubai and Abu Dhabi, offering extensive opportunities in hotels, restaurants, tourism, events, retail, and aviation. The culture combines Emirati traditions, Islamic values, and a highly international expatriate community. Lifestyle options range from beaches, shopping, and desert activities to museums, dining, and vibrant entertainment. Summers are extremely hot, while winters are generally pleasant. Most overseas employees require employer-sponsored residence and work visas; the employer normally arranges the permit, medical examination, Emirates ID, and related formalities. Candidates should verify contract terms covering accommodation, transport, insurance, flights, working hours, and gratuity. Relocation costs, document legalization, and initial living expenses should also be planned before arrival.
