Overview
Fooda is developing a new execution model for one of our largest strategic accounts. The EVP of Flex needs a hands-on operator–analyst who can dive into messy problems, pressure-test assumptions, model scenarios, verify execution in the field, and help stand up a new way of running our business. This is not a typical strategy or program management role. The EIR will function as a utility player, shifting between analytics, process design, field shadowing, vendor onboarding, cost modeling, and packaging insights into recommendations that can drive up and across the network. Who You Are
You have an entrepreneurial mindset and thrive in ambiguity. You like figuring things out from scratch, validating hypotheses in the field, and turning loosely defined ideas into operational reality. You’re highly analytical, but you don’t want to just sit behind a screen—you’re energized by going onsite and validating whether the model works in practice. You don’t need a big team, a big title, or perfect clarity to get started. You need a mandate, a problem, and access—and you’ll build the rest. What You’ll Do
Operational Modeling & Analysis Build and pressure-test the unit economics for new execution models (cost structure, pricing levers, throughput assumptions, margin sensitivity). Create rapid modeling tools to help the EVP evaluate production, logistics, and labor configurations. Identify cost drivers and surface improvement opportunities grounded in data and field observations.
On-the-Ground Validation & Problem Solving Spend time in the field—restaurants, commissaries, client sites—observing workflows, gathering data, and identifying friction and opportunities. Validate whether theoretical models match real-world execution; refine assumptions based on evidence.
Pilot Support & Execution Track pilot KPIs: quality, participation, cost, speed, reliability, food safety adherence. Build playbooks, templates, and checklists as pilot learnings harden.
Who We Are Looking For
3–6+ years in operations, strategy & operations, consulting, supply chain, FP&A/RevOps, or startup “Swiss Army knife” roles. Demonstrated ability to solve ambiguous problems with structured analysis and scrappy fieldwork. Strong financial/analytical skillset (Excel/Sheets modeling, cost sensitivity analysis). Comfortable in foodservice, warehouses, delivery ops, or other operational environments. Excellent written and verbal communication; can create clean, concise decks and memos. Bias for action—moves fast, tests ideas, iterates, doesn’t get stuck. What We’ll Hook You Up With
Competitive base salary, bonus plan, and stock options, based on experience Comprehensive health, dental and vision plans 401k retirement plan with company match Paid maternity and parental leave benefits Flexible spending accounts Company-issued laptop Daily subsidized lunch program (ours!) Unlimited vacation policy The salary range for this role is $100,000-$150,000. The base salary is dependent on a number of factors, included but not limited to: work experience, training, location, and skills.
