The Lifeguard is responsible for supervising swimming pools and designated water areas, enforcing safety rules, responding quickly to emergencies, and providing first aid or CPR when required. Candidates should have recognized lifeguard, CPR, and first-aid certifications, strong swimming ability, good physical fitness, and excellent observation skills. Previous experience in a hotel, resort, leisure facility, or similar environment is preferred. The role requires calm judgment, clear communication, professional grooming, and the ability to work outdoors, weekends, holidays, and rotating shifts. Candidates are expected to maintain vigilant poolside supervision, complete safety checks and reports, assist guests courteously, and follow Shangri-La’s service, health, and safety standards.
Shangri-La is a leading luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong, operating hotels, resorts, and related businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other destinations. Its properties are known for warm Asian hospitality, high service standards, comfortable accommodation, dining, wellness facilities, and memorable guest experiences. In the Philippines, Shangri-La operates well-known properties in locations including Manila, Cebu, and Boracay. The company offers careers across hotel operations, including food and beverage, rooms, engineering, recreation, guest services, sales, and administration. Employees are generally expected to demonstrate professionalism, teamwork, cultural awareness, attention to detail, and genuine care for guests. Compensation may include basic salary, service charge, meals, uniforms, training, medical coverage, and other benefits depending on the property and employment terms.
The Philippines offers hospitality opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Bohol, and other island destinations. Resorts regularly hire lifeguards, recreation staff, front-office employees, housekeepers, food and beverage teams, and maintenance workers. Filipino culture is welcoming, family-oriented, and strongly influenced by local traditions, Spanish history, and modern Asian life; English is widely used in hotels and workplaces. Island living can provide warm weather, beaches, affordable local food, and a relaxed lifestyle, although transport, healthcare access, and housing costs vary by destination. Filipino applicants normally need standard employment documents and employer requirements. Foreign nationals must secure an Alien Employment Permit and an appropriate employer-sponsored work visa, commonly a 9(g) visa, before working legally. Candidates should confirm accommodation, transportation, service-charge arrangements, contract terms, and work-permit support directly with Shangri-La before relocating.
