The Sales Manager will drive revenue by developing client relationships, securing corporate and group business, managing accounts, preparing sales plans, and representing Shangri-La in the Manila market. Candidates typically need a degree in hospitality, business, marketing, or a related field, plus several years of hotel or tourism sales experience. Strong knowledge of Manila's corporate, leisure, and events market is valuable. The role requires excellent communication, negotiation, presentation, and networking skills, along with commercial awareness and the ability to meet targets. The successful candidate is expected to be proactive, well organised, professional, customer focused, and comfortable working with international guests and internal hotel teams.
Shangri-La Group is a global luxury hospitality company founded in Hong Kong and known for its high-service standards and Asian heritage. It operates hotels, resorts, residences, and related businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other international markets. In the Philippines, Shangri-La properties include major urban hotels and resort destinations, serving business travellers, leisure guests, groups, and events. The company places strong emphasis on genuine hospitality, guest satisfaction, colleague development, responsible business, and long-term relationships. A Sales Manager based in Manila would typically support the commercial performance of a hotel or group account portfolio, working with corporate clients, travel partners, event organisers, and other revenue-generating channels.
The Philippines offers varied opportunities in hotels, tourism, business services, retail, technology, healthcare, and education. Manila is the main commercial centre and provides the widest selection of professional roles, while Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, and other islands have strong resort and tourism employment. Filipino culture is friendly, family oriented, community minded, and generally welcoming to foreigners. Lifestyle costs vary: Manila offers convenience and nightlife but has heavy traffic, while island locations provide a slower pace and outdoor activities. Foreign employees normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and appropriate visa, commonly coordinated through the Bureau of Immigration; requirements can change, so professional advice is recommended. Relocating usually involves arranging accommodation, health insurance, tax registration, banking, and local transport. English is widely used in business, although learning basic Filipino phrases helps daily integration.
