About the employer

Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay is a luxury beachfront resort located on Fiji’s western coast, near Nadi and the international airport. It is part of Marriott International, one of the world’s largest hospitality companies, operating hotels and resorts under a wide range of well-known brands. The resort features overwater and beachfront accommodation, restaurants and bars, swimming pools, spa and wellness facilities, meeting spaces and activities focused on relaxation and Fijian experiences. Its operations rely on teams across housekeeping, food and beverage, guest services, engineering, recreation and administration. Employees generally work in a professional, multicultural environment shaped by Marriott’s service standards, while also being exposed to Fiji’s welcoming hospitality traditions. Benefits and staff accommodation or meals may be available for some positions, but applicants should confirm the specific employment package directly with the resort.

Working in Fiji

Fiji offers hospitality, tourism, marine recreation, construction, education, healthcare and retail opportunities, especially around Nadi, Denarau, Suva and the Coral Coast. Fijian culture places strong importance on family, community, respect for elders and welcoming visitors. English is widely used, alongside Fijian and Fiji Hindi. Life is generally relaxed, with warm weather, beaches, outdoor activities and a slower pace, although imported goods and housing in tourist areas can be expensive. International workers normally need an employer-sponsored work permit before starting employment; requirements can include a valid passport, contract, qualifications and medical or police clearances. Employers may assist with permits, accommodation, transport or meals, but this varies by role. Relocating staff should budget for deposits, transport and living costs, and verify visa conditions with Fiji Immigration and the employer before travelling.
