• Establish consistent inventory counts and work with location teams to resolve discrepancies.
• Compare vendor pricing, negotiate when appropriate, and identify opportunities to reduce costs without compromising quality.
• Review orders, deliveries, invoices, credits, and product substitutions for accuracy.
• Track food, beverage, and supply costs against each location’s targets; report variances and recommend specific actions.
• Work with managers and kitchen teams to address waste, portioning, ordering habits, and other causes of cost increases.
• Prepare clear, regular reports on purchasing, inventory, vendor performance, and cost trends.

What we’re looking for

• Strong understanding of food cost, inventory counts, vendor pricing, and cost control.
• Confidence working with spreadsheets, invoices, reports, and restaurant systems.
• Strong organization, follow-through, and communication skills.
• Ability to visit locations in Miami-Dade and Broward County as needed.
• English required; Spanish is a plus.
