  • Proven people leader who develops talent, builds strong teams, and creates an inclusive, high-performance culture
  • Strong negotiator who is confident managing complex supplier agreements and driving cost savings without compromising quality or relationships
  • Highly analytical with a data-driven approach to problem-solving, decision-making, and continuous improvement
  • Strong collaborator who works effectively across departments—especially with culinary, quality, operations, and finance teams
  • Excellent communicator, both written and verbal, with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels
  • Customer and quality-obsessed, with a passion for delivering products that meet or exceed expectations
  • Driven by results, with a clear focus on delivering measurable impact through sourcing initiatives and team performance

You have…
