The Events Executive supports the planning, coordination and delivery of conferences, weddings, meetings and other functions at Shangri-La. Requirements typically include a degree or diploma in hospitality, events, business or a related field, along with experience in hotel events, catering or sales. Strong organization, communication and customer-service skills are essential. The successful candidate is expected to prepare proposals and event orders, coordinate with operations teams and suppliers, monitor event details, assist with client presentations and ensure functions meet brand and guest-service standards. Flexibility is important, as the role may involve evenings, weekends, public holidays and working under pressure while managing several events at the same time.
Shangri-La is a luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong, operating hotels, resorts and residences across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and other international destinations. The brand is known for refined service, comfortable surroundings and its Asian-inspired approach to genuine hospitality. In the Philippines, Shangri-La properties serve business travelers, leisure guests, families and large events, offering accommodation, restaurants, meeting facilities and wellness services. Employees generally work in a structured international hotel environment with strong service standards, training opportunities and opportunities for career development. An Events Executive may work closely with sales, banquets, kitchen, front office and finance teams to deliver seamless experiences for corporate and social clients. Duties and benefits vary by property, location and employment contract.
The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Davao and other resort destinations. Jobs are available in hotels, events, restaurants, tourism, diving and guest services, with major international brands often providing training and staff benefits. Filipino culture is welcoming, family-oriented and sociable, and English is widely used in workplaces. Lifestyle varies from busy urban living in Manila to a slower beach or island routine, although transport, weather and infrastructure can differ considerably. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and an appropriate visa before starting employment; requirements should be confirmed with the Bureau of Immigration and the employer. Relocating candidates should budget for housing deposits, transportation, health insurance and seasonal weather disruptions. Local salaries may be modest compared with Western markets, but living costs outside central Manila can be more affordable.
