The Restaurant Manager will oversee daily operations of the pool or beach bar, ensuring excellent guest service, efficient staffing, quality food and beverages, and compliance with Shangri-La standards. Candidates typically need a hospitality or business qualification, several years of experience in restaurant, bar, resort, or hotel operations, and strong knowledge of beverage service, cost control, inventory, and health and safety procedures. The role requires confident leadership, good communication, attention to detail, and the ability to work flexible shifts, weekends, and holidays in a busy outdoor environment.

Shangri-La Group is a leading luxury hospitality company headquartered in Hong Kong, operating hotels, resorts, residences, and other hospitality businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and Africa. Its properties are known for warm Asian hospitality, high service standards, premium dining, and well-developed leisure facilities. In the Philippines, Shangri-La operates several prominent hotels and resorts, including properties in Manila, Cebu, and Boracay. The company places strong emphasis on guest satisfaction, employee development, teamwork, and responsible business practices. Depending on the property and position, employees may receive service charge, meals, uniforms, medical coverage, training, accommodation assistance, and other staff benefits. Restaurant managers are generally expected to support the brand’s luxury service culture while delivering commercially successful and well-organized food and beverage operations.
The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol, and other resort destinations, especially in hotels, restaurants, diving, events, and tourism services. Work culture is generally warm, relationship-oriented, and team-focused, with English widely used in professional settings. Island life can provide a relaxed lifestyle, tropical beaches, outdoor activities, and lower daily costs than many international destinations, although imported goods, transport, and housing in popular resorts may be expensive. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and appropriate visa or immigration status; requirements vary by nationality and job, so approval should be confirmed with the employer and Philippine authorities before travel. Accommodation, meals, airport transfers, and relocation support differ by property. Candidates should prepare for humid weather, seasonal typhoons, variable internet and transport services, and the possibility of living in a smaller resort community away from major cities.
