• Analyse site-level P&Ls with a focus on:

• Kiosk profitability
• Event catering margins
• JV cash flows, including capex funding and profit distributions

• Advise Operations teams on pricing strategies
• Collaborate with Commercial teams to assess new business opportunities, including permanent/semi-permanent sites, corporate events, and mobile units (e.g., food trucks)
• Prepare feasibility studies and sensitivity analyses for potential ventures
• Deliver daily executive dashboards with key performance indicators via Power BI
• Prepare monthly management reports, including financial commentary
• Evaluate capex ROI, especially for undertenant-funded JV investments
