The Captain at Summer Palace, Shangri-La Hong Kong, supervises daily restaurant operations and leads the service team in delivering refined Chinese dining experiences. Requirements typically include previous experience in a luxury hotel or high-end restaurant, strong knowledge of food and beverage service, good communication skills, and the ability to guide and train junior colleagues. Cantonese and English are highly useful, while Mandarin may be advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to be polished, attentive, guest-focused, and capable of coordinating closely with the kitchen and management teams. Flexibility to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays, together with a professional appearance and strong knowledge of hygiene and service standards, is expected.
Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts is a luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong and recognized for its Asian-inspired service, elegant properties, and strong emphasis on genuine care. The group operates hotels, resorts, and city properties across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America, and other international destinations. In Hong Kong, Shangri-La operates prestigious hotels including Island Shangri-La, where Summer Palace is a Michelin-recognized Chinese restaurant known for refined Cantonese cuisine, premium ingredients, and sophisticated service. Employees generally work in an international environment with structured operating standards, training opportunities, and opportunities for career development within the wider group. The company places importance on hospitality, teamwork, cultural understanding, guest satisfaction, and maintaining high standards across food, beverage, and hotel operations.
Hong Kong offers strong opportunities in luxury hotels, restaurants, tourism, finance, retail, technology, and international business. Its culture blends Cantonese traditions with global influences, and people value efficiency, courtesy, family, and excellent food. The lifestyle is energetic and convenient, with outstanding public transport, dense urban neighborhoods, hiking trails, beaches, and extensive shopping and dining. Rent can be high, especially on Hong Kong Island and in central districts, so many employees live in Kowloon or the New Territories. Foreign nationals normally need an employment visa sponsored by a Hong Kong employer, and the role must meet immigration requirements. Employers commonly assist with visa documentation, onboarding, and sometimes staff accommodation or relocation support. New arrivals should prepare qualifications, references, passport documents, and proof of employment, and should confirm housing, medical coverage, working hours, and service-charge arrangements before relocating.
