The F&B Coordinator supports the food and beverage department with administrative coordination, scheduling, reports, guest-related communication, document control and communication between restaurants, banquets and hotel departments. The role is part of Shangri-La’s Emiratization programme and is likely intended for a UAE national. Candidates should have strong English communication, good computer and Microsoft Office skills, excellent organisation, attention to detail and a professional hospitality attitude. A diploma or degree in hospitality, business administration or a related field is helpful, while previous hotel or food and beverage experience may be preferred. The successful candidate is expected to work accurately under pressure, cooperate with multicultural teams, maintain confidentiality and provide responsive support to managers and operational colleagues.
Shangri-La is a luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong and recognised internationally for its hotels, resorts and distinctive Asian-inspired approach to service. The group operates properties across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and other major destinations. Shangri-La hotels typically offer guest rooms, restaurants, bars, meeting facilities, spas and leisure services, supported by a strong focus on personal hospitality and service quality. In the United Arab Emirates, the company operates well-known properties in destinations including Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Employees generally work in multicultural, professionally structured environments with opportunities to develop careers across hotel operations, food and beverage, events and corporate functions. This vacancy also supports the UAE’s Emiratization objectives by encouraging employment and career development for Emirati nationals within the hospitality sector.
The United Arab Emirates is not an island, but a federation of seven emirates on the Arabian Peninsula, with Dubai and Abu Dhabi offering the widest range of hospitality opportunities. Hotels, resorts, restaurants, event venues and tourism companies regularly recruit coordinators, supervisors and department specialists. The culture combines Emirati traditions with a highly international lifestyle; modest dress and respectful behaviour are appreciated, particularly in public and religious settings. Life is convenient and modern, with excellent shopping, dining, transport and entertainment, although summer temperatures are extremely high. Employers normally arrange a work permit and residence visa after hiring, with medical checks and Emirates ID registration required. Candidates should confirm whether accommodation, meals, transport, insurance and annual flights are included in the offer. UAE nationals applying through Emiratization programmes may receive additional career-development support. Expatriates should budget carefully for housing, deposits and school costs if relocating with family.
