Company Info

Shangri-La is a major luxury hospitality group founded in Asia and known for its hotels, resorts, and distinctive service culture. The company operates properties across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other international destinations. Its hotels typically offer accommodation, restaurants, bars, banqueting, wellness facilities, and conference services, serving both leisure and business travelers. Shangri-La places strong emphasis on genuine hospitality, personalized guest service, professional development, and operational quality. In Indonesia, the group has been associated with high-end urban and resort hospitality, where culinary teams serve international guests as well as local customers.

Destination Guide

Indonesia offers opportunities in luxury hotels, resorts, restaurants, tourism, diving, wellness, and events, especially in Bali, Java, Lombok, Batam, and popular resort islands. Bali has the largest international hospitality market and a relaxed lifestyle, strong expatriate community, beaches, arts, Hindu traditions, and busy seasonal tourism. Lombok and other islands are generally quieter and more nature-focused, while Jakarta and Java provide broader commercial opportunities but a faster urban pace. Local culture values respect, community, modesty, and religious customs; learning basic Indonesian is highly useful. Foreign employees normally need employer sponsorship and the correct work permit and stay permit before starting work. Employers often assist with immigration, accommodation, flights, meals, and insurance, but this varies by contract. Candidates should confirm tax, housing, medical cover, working hours, and relocation costs before accepting an offer.
