  • Collaborate with company leadership on budgets, quarterly planning, and long-term strategic initiatives.
  • Deliver KPIs that reflect operational performance, including food cost %, labor cost %, sales per square foot, and margin trends.
  • Identify and implement process improvements across accounting systems, POS integrations, and reporting workflows.
  • Assist in developing internal controls and documenting financial procedures specific to restaurant and retail environments.
  • Streamline inventory management practices, including tracking perishable goods, multi-location stock, and seasonal adjustments.
