The Events Manager is responsible for planning, selling, coordinating and delivering conferences, weddings, meetings and other functions at Shangri-La. Requirements typically include a degree or diploma in hospitality, tourism, events or business, along with several years of hotel or event-management experience. Strong knowledge of event operations, banquet service, budgeting, contracts and customer relationship management is expected. The successful candidate should communicate confidently, negotiate effectively and remain organized under pressure. Attention to detail, commercial awareness, leadership skills and a guest-focused approach are essential. Flexibility to work weekends, evenings and public holidays is also expected, together with the ability to coordinate multiple departments and ensure events meet Shangri-La’s service and quality standards.
Shangri-La is a leading luxury hospitality group founded in Hong Kong, with hotels, resorts and residences across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and other international markets. The company is known for warm Asian hospitality, high service standards and distinctive properties in city and resort destinations. Its Philippine operations include well-established hotels and resorts serving business travelers, leisure guests, weddings, conferences and major social events. Shangri-La places strong emphasis on guest satisfaction, employee development, sustainability and professional hotel operations. Employees typically work in a multicultural environment with opportunities to build careers across rooms, food and beverage, events, sales and corporate functions. Benefits and compensation vary by property, but may include service charge, meals, uniforms, medical coverage, training and staff rates at participating hotels.
The Philippines offers event, hospitality and tourism opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, Davao and other resort destinations. English is widely used, and Filipino workplace culture generally values warmth, teamwork, respect for seniority and personal relationships. Island living can provide beaches, outdoor activities, affordable local food and a relaxed lifestyle, although transport, internet access and healthcare may vary outside major cities. Manila offers the widest range of corporate events and international hotel roles, while resort islands provide stronger leisure and wedding-event exposure. Foreign nationals normally need an employer-sponsored work permit and appropriate visa, commonly arranged through the company; working on a tourist visa is not permitted. Candidates should confirm salary, service charge, accommodation, transportation, tax, insurance and relocation support before accepting an offer. Weather is tropical, with a rainy season and occasional typhoons, so relocation planning should include housing, banking and emergency arrangements.
