Job Description Job Title: Senior Associate – F&B; Operations
n Business Unit: RMZ Private Capital, F&B; Vertical
n Location: Bangalore, India
n Role Overview
n The Senior Associate – F&B; Operations is a part of core team responsible for operationalising every F&B; venture RMZ enters. This role takes approved concepts from launch through to live, P&L-accountable;, steady-state operation.
n The ideal candidate has run restaurants on the floor — managing the full operation day to day, not a single function. You own what happens on the ground: staffing, service standards, supplier management, compliance, inventory, and the daily controllables that determine whether a restaurant performs. Standalone restaurant experience is strongly preferred over hotel F&B; operations.
n Key Responsibilities
n n Operational Execution
n n n Take approved F&B; concepts from launch into steady-state operation — opening readiness, staffing, SOPs, service standards, and supplier onboarding.
n Move quick through ambiguity — early-stage ventures require someone who can stand up an operation from scratch and run it independently.
n n n Day-to-Day Operations Management
n n n Own the operational controllables across RMZ's F&B; units — labour, inventory, wastage, vendor performance, and service quality.
n Be hands-on and present where the work happens; this role lives in the detail of execution.
n n n Pre-Opening & Launch
n n n Coordinate fit-out readiness, licensing and statutory compliance (FSSAI, excise, fire NOC, municipal), vendor appointment, and the pre-opening checklist alongside the VP / AVP.
n Manage pre-opening budgets and ensure handover from construction to operations is clean and on schedule.
n n n Cost & Inventory Control
n n n Run procurement, inventory, and cost controls on the ground, feeding accurate operational data back into the P&L.;
n Run tight operational and cost discipline; catch problems on the floor before they reach the P&L.;
n n n Partner & Operator Coordination
n n n Serve as RMZ's operational point of contact with JV/franchise partners and on-site teams, ensuring delivery against agreed standards.
n Partner closely with the VP / AVP as the second half of a tight, accountable two-person team.
n n n Reporting
n n n Provide the leadership with reliable operational and cost reporting from the field.
n Maintain accurate records of daily controllables, vendor performance, and compliance status.
n n Skills & Experience
n n 6–8 years as a restaurant manager with end-to-end operations responsibility — not a single function.
n Standalone restaurant operations experience is strongly preferred over hotel F&B.;
n Proven track record in pre-opening, staffing, and cost/inventory control.
n Hands-on and present where the work happens — this role lives in the detail of execution.
n Ability to stand up an operation from scratch and deliver steady-state performance independently.
n Strong vendor management, procurement, and compliance (FSSAI, excise, licensing) knowledge.
n Reliable operational reporting discipline — accurate data from the field to the P&L.;
