Performance Analyst

We are looking for a high-impact Performance Analyst to serve as the "navigator" for our regional business. You won't just be reporting numbers; you will be the bridge between data and action. You will own the performance narrative for Pandora Kitchens, identifying commercial risks before they hit the P&L and leading cross-functional projects with Sales, Growth, and Ops to move our needle on key KPIs.

1. Strategic Performance Governance

• The Business Narrative: Own the weekly, monthly, and quarterly business review (WBR/MBR/QBR) process, translating complex metrics into a clear story for regional leadership.
• Leading Indicators: Maintain the "Leading Variable" framework to track the drivers of the business (e.g., kitchen uptime, prep times, menu conversion) before they impact lagging financial results.
• Performance Auditing: Identify underperforming brands or locations and collaborate with the commercial team to design and execute turnaround plans.

2. Financial Forecasting & Risk Mitigation

• Forward-Looking Analysis: Build detailed financial and demand forecasts to guide resource allocation and budget planning.
• Commercial Guardrails: Proactively highlight upcoming challenges in commercial margins or cost structures, providing data-backed recommendations to mitigate risks.

3. Growth & Cross-Functional Initiatives

• Special Projects: Assist in high-priority initiatives with Growth, Sales, and Operations teams to optimize kitchen utilization and drive order frequency.
• Commercial Optimization: Partner with Account Managers to optimize the brand mix and pricing strategies, ensuring every square foot of kitchen space is maximized for ROI.

4. Ecosystem & Product Liaison

• Bridge the Gap: Act as the primary regional stakeholder for Central Product and Data teams. Ensure regional needs are reflected in product roadmaps and that data infrastructure supports local commercial needs.
• Process Automation: Work with central teams to automate manual tracking, allowing the regional team to focus on "the why" rather than "the how."

• Experience: 3–5 years in Commercial Finance, Strategy Consulting, or Business Operations (Start-up/Scale-up experience preferred).
• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, Engineering, or a related field.
• Technical Edge: High proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets. SQL proficiency  is required.
• Stakeholder Management: Proven ability to influence senior leaders and collaborate across Ops, Sales, and Product teams.
