The Executive Chef leads all culinary operations, including restaurant, banquet, room-service and staff dining kitchens. The role requires extensive experience in luxury hotels or upscale resorts, strong knowledge of international and local cuisine, menu planning, food costing, purchasing, hygiene standards and kitchen financial management. Candidates should hold relevant culinary qualifications and demonstrate excellent leadership, communication and team-development skills. The successful candidate is expected to maintain Shangri-La’s quality standards, deliver creative and consistent cuisine, control costs, meet food-safety requirements and work closely with senior management and other departments. Experience in Indonesia or an international hotel environment, along with adaptability, commercial awareness and a passion for guest satisfaction, would be advantageous.
Shangri-La is a leading luxury hospitality group founded in Asia and headquartered in Hong Kong. The company operates hotels, resorts and related hospitality businesses across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, North America and other international markets. Its properties are known for personalized service, distinctive dining, comfortable accommodation and strong destination-based experiences. Shangri-La emphasizes its values of hospitality, respect, humility and teamwork, while offering career opportunities across hotel operations, food and beverage, culinary services, guest relations and corporate functions. In Indonesia, the group has operated high-end properties serving leisure and business travelers in major tourism and commercial destinations. An Executive Chef joining Shangri-La would typically work in a multicultural environment, lead sizeable culinary teams and support restaurant concepts, banquets, events and resort or hotel-wide food operations.
Indonesia offers opportunities for hospitality professionals across Bali, Java, Lombok, Batam and other resort islands. Bali has the largest international tourism market, with strong demand in luxury hotels, restaurants, beach clubs and wellness resorts. Jakarta and Surabaya provide more corporate and city-hotel opportunities, while Lombok and the eastern islands offer growing resort markets. Indonesian culture values courtesy, community, family and respectful communication; learning basic Bahasa Indonesia is highly useful. Lifestyle varies from busy urban living to relaxed coastal communities, with tropical weather, diverse food and comparatively affordable daily costs outside major tourist areas. Foreign employees generally need an employer-sponsored work permit and appropriate limited-stay visa before beginning employment. Employers often assist with immigration, accommodation, flights, insurance and tax registration, but arrangements differ by contract. Candidates should verify visa eligibility, accommodation, healthcare and service-charge terms before relocating.
