The F&B Coordinator supports the food and beverage department with administration, scheduling, reports, communication, documentation, and coordination between restaurants, kitchens, banquets, and hotel management. The role generally requires UAE nationality under the Emiratization program, a high school diploma or hospitality qualification, good spoken and written English, computer literacy, organization, and a service-focused attitude. Arabic and previous hotel or restaurant experience may be advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to communicate professionally, maintain accurate records, respond promptly to operational requests, support colleagues, and uphold Shangri-La’s standards for guest service, presentation, confidentiality, and teamwork.

Shangri-La is known for warm Asian hospitality, personalized guest service, distinctive dining, wellness facilities, and carefully designed urban and resort experiences. In the United Arab Emirates, the group operates luxury properties serving business travelers, leisure guests, families, and major events. Employees typically work in a multicultural environment with structured hotel operations, service training, and opportunities to move between departments or properties. The company places strong emphasis on guest satisfaction, professionalism, teamwork, cultural awareness, and consistent brand standards. This Emiratization opportunity is intended to support the development of UAE nationals within the hospitality sector.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island but a federation of seven emirates, with strong opportunities in hotels, restaurants, tourism, aviation, retail, events, and business services. Dubai and Abu Dhabi offer the widest range of hospitality roles, while Ras Al Khaimah, Fujairah, and other emirates provide growing resort opportunities. The culture combines Emirati traditions, Islamic values, and a large international expatriate community. Summers are extremely hot, but indoor facilities are excellent; winters are pleasant for beaches, desert trips, and outdoor activities. Employers commonly arrange or sponsor work visas, subject to an employment contract, medical fitness test, Emirates ID, and government approval. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transport, insurance, leave, and end-of-service benefits before relocating. Living costs can be high, particularly in Dubai, so salary and benefits should be considered together.
