Working in Philippines

The Philippines offers hospitality and marketing opportunities in Manila, Cebu, Boracay, Palawan, and other resort destinations. Manila provides the broadest corporate and hotel career market, while Cebu, Boracay, and Palawan offer resort-based roles and a more relaxed coastal lifestyle. Filipino culture is friendly, family-oriented, community-minded, and strongly influenced by English-language communication, local traditions, and international tourism. Living costs vary considerably: Manila is more expensive and fast-paced, while island destinations may be quieter but have fewer services and seasonal employment patterns. Foreign nationals generally need an appropriate work visa or permit sponsored or supported by their employer; requirements depend on nationality and contract length. Candidates should confirm immigration rules, accommodation, transport, healthcare, taxes, and relocation assistance directly with Shangri-La before accepting an offer.
