Regional Food Manager

Regional Food Manager

This isn't a back-office strategy role—it's your chance to own and scale a growing food service business. As Regional Food Manager, you'll lead the vision, strategy, and performance of a 12-store convenience chain's food program, with a clear mandate: drive aggressive growth (25%+) while strengthening margins and brand appeal.

You'll shape what customers eat and how they buy—from menu innovation and pricing strategy to promotions, daypart expansion, and in-store execution. Using data as your compass, you'll uncover opportunities, test new ideas, and turn insights into measurable results. Working cross-functionally with culinary, operations, marketing, and supply chain teams, you'll ensure every initiative translates into real performance in stores.

If you're equal parts strategist and operator—someone who thrives on ownership, accountability, and building something bigger—this role offers the opportunity to make a visible, lasting impact on a high-growth food service business.

• Own total food service sales, margin, and profitability performance across all locations.
• Develop and execute a comprehensive food service strategy aligned to annual growth targets (e.g., 25%+).
• Lead menu development, including core assortment, innovation pipeline, and limited-time offers (LTOs).
• Establish pricing strategy, including price architecture, value positioning, and margin optimization.
• Build, manage, and continuously optimize a data-driven promotional and marketing calendar.
• Identify, develop, and expand key dayparts (e.g., breakfast, lunch, late-night) to increase traffic and sales.
• Analyze sales, margin, and customer data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities; adjust strategy accordingly.
• Develop and implement bundling, upselling, and attach-rate initiatives to increase average transaction value.
• Partner cross-functionally with culinary, operations, marketing, and supply chain teams to ensure successful execution.
• Define and track key performance indicators (KPIs) and hold teams accountable to performance targets.
• Evaluate competitive landscape and industry trends to inform strategic direction.
• Support testing, piloting, and scaling of new products, programs, and operational initiatives.
• Identify opportunities to improve operational efficiency while maintaining product quality and consistency.
