The Executive Chinese Chef leads the Chinese kitchen operation, overseeing menu development, food quality, kitchen standards, cost control, purchasing, hygiene, and team performance.

Professional culinary training, leadership ability, creativity, and sound financial awareness are expected. The successful candidate should be comfortable managing multicultural teams, training junior chefs, maintaining food-safety standards, and delivering consistent guest experiences. Experience with banquets, large-scale events, menu engineering, and Indonesian hospitality regulations would be advantageous.
Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts is a luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong and known for refined service, Asian-inspired warmth, and high-quality accommodation. The company operates hotels, resorts, and related hospitality properties across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Africa, and North America. Shangri-La properties typically offer restaurants, banqueting, wellness facilities, business services, and extensive guest experiences. Its workplace culture emphasizes genuine hospitality, operational excellence, teamwork, employee development, and respect for local communities. In Indonesia, Shangri-La has built a strong reputation through upscale hospitality and international service standards.

Benefits and employment conditions differ by property, position, and contract.
Indonesia offers varied opportunities in luxury hotels, restaurants, tourism, wellness, aviation, and events, especially in Bali, Java, Lombok, and the Riau Islands. Bali is the most internationally oriented destination, with a relaxed lifestyle, strong expatriate community, beaches, arts, and active hospitality hiring, although housing and traffic can be challenging. Java, including Jakarta, provides larger corporate and culinary markets with a faster urban pace. Lombok and other islands offer quieter living and growing resort development. Indonesian culture values politeness, community, family, and religious diversity; modest dress and sensitivity during ceremonies are important. Foreign employees normally need employer sponsorship and an appropriate work permit and stay visa before starting work. Employers may assist with documentation, accommodation, flights, health insurance, and relocation, but arrangements should be confirmed in writing. Costs vary considerably by island, and learning basic Indonesian is highly beneficial.
