About the company

Our mission is simple: we introduce craft and delight to everyday eating. We believe that eating well should be easy - that food can taste good, feel good, and not break the bank. We take the best ingredients and turn them into delectable meals customers can't help but eat (like a habit).

We're one of the first cloud kitchens in Manila and have served 1M+ meals through digital-only brands - and we're only getting started. We're looking for bright, passionate folks to help us change the way Filipinos eat.

What we're looking for

You've spearheaded the opening of retail or F&B stores and know your way around kitchens, plans, and working with architects and contractors alike. The role is highly autonomous, leading our expansion into new cities.

  • 1+ years of experience opening new kitchens or stores for a retail or F&B company.
  • Preferred: Bachelor's Degree in Economics, Business, HRM, Engineering, or related field.
  • Experience sourcing and working with various contractors for the construction of new kitchens and stores - especially for related electrical, mechanical, and plumbing needs.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of kitchen equipment, fixtures, and workflows with the ability to give thoughtful input to kitchen layouts.
  • Prior exposure to contractor, vendor, and lease negotiations.
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented, especially while handling multiple competing priorities.
  • Comfortable meeting tight deadlines and planning for unforeseen circumstances.
  • Excellent communication skills (English and Tagalog).
  • Proficient with Google Office Suite (Docs, Sheets, Slides, etc.) and/or Microsoft product counterparts.
  • Fresh graduates are welcome to apply.
What you'll be doing
  • Owning kitchen and store launches end-to-end, including site selection, lease negotiation, mapping store layout, managing contractor bids, managing equipment vendors, overseeing construction, application of necessary permits, and assessing launch success.
  • Performing market research to evaluate sites, size up demand, and estimate capital expenditure.
  • Maintaining a rigorous project tracker to keep all relevant stakeholders updated on progress.
  • Delivering launches on-time and within budget.
  • Sourcing kitchen equipment and fixtures from multiple vendors to assess value and cost.
  • Handling administrative work such as documentation, contracts, securing permits, etc.
  • Coordinating with operations managers to ensure proper turnover upon launch.
  • Conducting post-launch analysis to validate projections on expected foot traffic and sales.

The role will require significant travel to sites within Metro Manila. The office is based in Salcedo Village, Makati.
