In the Philippines, the group operates well-known properties including Shangri-La The Fort, Manila and Shangri-La Mactan, Cebu, serving business travelers, leisure guests, families, and major events. Employees typically work in a structured international environment with opportunities for professional development, cross-functional experience, and career progression across hotels and destinations.
The Philippines offers opportunities in hotel sales, tourism, events, aviation, restaurants, technology, and business services, particularly in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, and Clark. Filipino culture is generally warm, family-oriented, and welcoming, with English widely used in workplaces and daily communication. Manila provides the broadest career market, extensive shopping and dining, lively nightlife, and heavy traffic; Cebu and resort islands offer a more relaxed lifestyle but fewer corporate roles. Living costs vary, with housing and transport usually highest in central Manila. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work visa, commonly a 9(g) Alien Employment Permit arrangement, before taking paid employment; requirements can change, so confirmation with Philippine immigration authorities is essential. Local candidates should verify relocation support, accommodation, medical coverage, and travel expectations before accepting an offer.
