  • Build internal and external partnerships with the Property team to ensure we’re capturing all of the information which will influence our recommendations for financial decisions – from sales and revenue drivers, to costs and investments.
  • Bring together these inputs to model the commercials for pipeline restaurants.
  • Conduct analysis of new restaurant performance following opening, to feed into future pipeline store modeling.
  • Reviewing Real Estate balance sheet accounts, working with the Property team and the Global Business Services (GBS) team to reconcile the accounts on a monthly basis.
  • Work with the wider Finance team to support the annual financial planning process.

Qualifications

What You’ll Need:

  • CIMA, ACA or ACCA qualified
  • Strong analytical skills with attention to detail – ability to breakdown problems whilst identifying trends and drawing conclusions
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills - ability to communicate sophisticated issues, adapting your style for different audiences
  • Building relationships – ability to work cross-functionally, building strong relationships, while challenging the status quo
  • Good presentation skills – able to influence through your presentations
  • Ability to work in a team, lead your peers and challenge your seniors
  • Self-motivated with good time management to deal with conflicting priorities in a fast paced environment

 

What You’ll Get:

  • A collaborative and inclusive culture where your ideas and contributions are truly valued
  • Direct influence on strategic direction and high-profile business initiatives
  • A collaborative and inclusive culture, where your ideas are valued
  • Competitive salary plus benefits package, free parking, lunch, gym access.
  • Hybrid working
