  • Conduct benchmarking research on commodity pricing and competitive sourcing strategies.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Culinary, Supply Chain, and Operations teams to ensure sourcing decisions align with business needs.

  • Prepare presentations and reports to summarize findings and recommendations for leadership.

What You Bring to the Table

  • Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Supply Chain Management, Food Science, Business, or related field.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets (bonus: SQL, Tableau, or other analytics tools).

  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.

  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment.
