About Z-Tech and Zyng Parks
Z-Tech (India) Limited is a listed company that builds and operates sustainable, art-based parks under the Zyng Parks brand. Our parks welcomed 20 lakh visitors last year across 8 locations, with 75 lakh visitors planned next year across 25 locations. F&B; is a core part of the visitor experience and one of our largest growth levers.
About the Role
We are looking for an entrepreneurial Head F&B; to build and lead the F&B; business across our Creative Parks. The role will focus on developing Z-Tech’s own F&B; brands, creating differentiated food concepts and building strategic partnerships with leading F&B; operators and brands.
This is a hands-on builder role. You will set the F&B; strategy and also do the work yourself: open the first outlets, cost the first menus, write the first SOPs, negotiate the first partner deals and hire the team around you. It suits someone who has run both a kitchen floor and a P&L;, and who is energised by building from a blank page.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the F&B; strategy, P&L;, revenue and profitability across the park network.
- Conceptualise, develop and launch in-house F&B; brands and formats suited to different park audiences.
- Build and manage partnerships with national/regional F&B; brands, QSRs, cafs, cloud kitchens and food entrepreneurs.
- Identify new F&B; opportunities based on consumer trends, park footfall and local market demand.
- Develop the complete F&B; ecosystem covering concept, menu, pricing, sourcing, operations, quality and customer experience.
- Personally lead the launch of the first in-house concepts: menu engineering, recipe costing, kitchen layout, vendor onboarding and on-ground execution through opening weekends.
- Drive revenue per visitor, repeat consumption and outlet productivity.
- Lead vendor/partner selection, commercial negotiations,
revenue-share models and partnership agreements.
- Establish SOPs and operating standards to ensure consistent quality, hygiene and service across parks.
- Ensure full FSSAI licensing and food-safety compliance across all outlets, including partner-operated ones.
- Design F&B; formats that reflect the parks' sustainability and art-led identity, including low-waste packaging and local sourcing.
- Work closely with the Park Operations, Marketing, Revenue and Business teams to integrate F&B; with events and park experiences.
- Identify opportunities for new formats, seasonal concepts, kiosks, carts, pop-ups and experiential F&B;.
- Recruit the founding hires yourself, then build and lead a strong F&B; team and operating structure as the business scales.
What Success Looks Like in the First 12 to 18 Months
- Launch in-house F&B; concepts across all parks.
- Grow F&B; spend per visitor and F&B; attach rate of visitors.
- Sign brand partnerships on revenue-share terms that meet target margins.
- Hire and embed the core F&B; team, with SOPs live in every park.
Ideal Candidate
- 10+ years of experience in F&B;, QSR, restaurants, hospitality, retail or consumer businesses.
- Proven experience in building/scaling F&B; brands or concepts, preferably across multiple locations.
- Strong understanding of F&B; P&L;, unit economics, partnerships and commercial negotiations.
- Experience working with both owned brands and franchise/brand partnerships.
- Entrepreneurial mindset with a strong understanding of consumer behaviour, food trends and experience-led F&B;.
- Strong commercial, operational and people leadership skills.
- Ability to build a business from concept to scale in a fast-growing environment.
- Hands-on operator who has personally opened and run outlets, and is comfortable on the floor during peak weekends and holidays.
- Zero-to-one experience: has built at least one F&B; brand, format or business line from scratch to a profitable, multi-outlet operation.
- Motivated by long-term value creation and comfortable with a meaningful equity-linked component in total compensation.
Compensation & Advantages We want the person who builds this business to share in the value it creates. The package combines market-competitive fixed pay, an annual bonus tied to F&B; revenue and profit, and a meaningful long-term, equity-linked incentive.
- Fixed compensation: competitive and commensurate with experience, benchmarked to senior F&B; leadership roles.
- Annual performance bonus: linked to F&B; revenue and profitability (EBITDA) targets for the business you own, agreed at the start of each year.
- Long-term incentive plan (LTIP): eligibility for equity-linked awards in Z-Tech (India) Limited, a listed company, through Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs) and/or Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The mix and quantum will be agreed at offer stage.
- Aligned upside: the value of these awards is linked to Z-Tech's share price, so your reward grows as the F&B; business and the company grow.
- Benefits: Other benefits as per company policy.
All equity-linked awards are subject to the terms of the company's employee share-based benefit scheme, applicable SEBI regulations and required shareholder approvals.
