Description

Company Description At Ennismore, we do things a little differently. We’re a small team with big ambitions, and food & beverage sits right at the heart of what makes our properties stand out. From neighbourhood restaurants to destination dining, F&B is a key driver of both our guest experience and our commercial performance. Through our fully integrated platform, Paris Society — with 50+ iconic venues, including 23 in Dubai — alongside 500+ restaurants and bars globally, this is where we truly come to life. What matters most to us is how we work together — staying close, being hands-on, and delivering on what we commit to. Job Description Own and lead the annual budgeting process across restaurant outlets and F&B operations — covering revenue planning, COGS, labour cost assumptions, menu mix, and cover volumes. Translate the numbers into clear, compelling management presentations that operations teams can actually use. Drive the weekly/monthly forecasting cycle with a focus on F&B revenue streams — wet vs. dry sales, seasonal trading patterns, and event/activation uplift. Perform detailed variance analysis and continuously refine models to sharpen accuracy on sales, margins, and operating costs. Prepare monthly and quarterly management reports with a deep F&B lens: outlet-level P&L performance, revenue trends, food and beverage margin analysis, and key cost drivers including labour, waste, spoilage, and procurement. Surface the story behind the numbers, not just the numbers. Build and maintain financial models (P&L, cash flow, unit economics) grounded in F&B operational realities — supporting scenario planning for new outlet openings, menu engineering, pricing strategies, promotional impact analysis, and concept evolution. Analyse variances against budget using F&B-specific KPIs: average spend per cover, table turnover, food cost %, beverage cost %, and labour as % of revenue — across all locations and concepts, identifying risks and untapped opportunities. Act as a true business partner to F&B operations — working closely with chefs, bar managers, outlet managers, and procurement. Translate financial targets into actionable plans around cost control, menu engineering, pricing strategy, and revenue optimisation. Ensure accuracy and timeliness of financial data from POS systems, inventory management platforms, and ERP; oversee consolidation of multi-outlet financials and maintain data integrity across all F&B reporting. Support month-end and year-end close processes with detailed performance commentary, trend identification, and flagging of operational risks and opportunities. Drive continuous improvement in FP&A processes, including automation of reporting, standardisation across outlets, and implementation of dashboards and BI tools. Present financial insights and recommendations to senior management with confidence and clarity — focusing on F&B profitability, cost efficiencies, concept performance, and growth opportunities across the portfolio. Ensure compliance with local regulations, company financial policies, and internal control standards, particularly around cash handling, inventory, and procurement. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration or related field; Master’s/MBA is a plus Minimum 5+ years of experience in finance/FP&A roles; F&B, restaurant, or hospitality experience preferred — direct exposure to bar and restaurant operations is a strong advantage Strong technical knowledge of financial planning, budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and variance analysis Advanced Excel skills; experience with BI reporting tools, data visualisation, ERP and consolidation systems an advantage Experience with SUN System (EPM) preferred Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities; able to interpret complex data and present clear, actionable recommendations Strong business partnering skills: able to engage credibly with chefs, bar and outlet managers, and senior leadership alike Genuine interest in bars and restaurants — an understanding of and passion for the F&B industry, its culture and commercial dynamics, is as important to us as technical finance expertise Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, multi-unit environment with competing priorities and tight deadlines Additional Information Our commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: We are an inclusive company, and our ambition is to attract, recruit and promote diverse talent.
