Job Title : Controller (Growth to CFO)

Location : Manhattan, New York

Department : Finance

Reports To : CEO & Ownership

Employment Type : Full-Time

About Us

Our concept was born from a desire to change how New York experiences food — blending tradition with fresh ideas. We believe every meal should offer more than flavor — it should tell a story of care, quality, and intention. By sourcing the finest ingredients and designing every detail with thoughtfulness, we are committed to crafting high-quality, consistent dishes that nourish the city.

With one exciting Manhattan location already open 2 years ago, we’re expanding rapidly : 3 locations by mid-2026 and 3 more by 2028. With secured funding and ambitious growth plans, we are building toward a vibrant, accessible future in dining.

✨ This is a unique opportunity to join a company that is not only growing, but reshaping how hospitality can look and feel in New York.

Job Summary

We are seeking a strategic, detail-driven Controller who has the potential to grow into the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) role as we scale. This is a hands-on leadership position responsible for overseeing financial operations, ensuring compliance, and guiding fiscal strategy. The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, multi-entity hospitality environment and is energized by the opportunity to help shape the financial foundation of a rapidly scaling company.

Key Responsibilities

Core Accounting & Financial Management

  • Lead all accounting operations, including A / P, A / R, GL, P&L, cost accounting, and revenue recognition.
  • Manage budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis.
  • Deliver timely and accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements, including consolidated reporting.
  • Oversee cash flow management and reconciliations across multiple entities.
  • Audit GL accounts and maintain strong internal controls and accounting policies.
  • Support month-end, quarter-end, and year-end closes.

Compliance & Regulatory Oversight

  • Ensure compliance with all federal, state, and local tax and reporting requirements.
  • Manage filings, compliance, and insurance policies (UI, disability, workers’ comp).
  • Operational Finance & Leadership

  • Review daily sales reports, deposits, and system integrations (POS, payroll, etc.).
  • Approve payroll weekly and oversee cross-entity billing and reconciliations.
  • Monitor cost controls for COGS, labor, and menu pricing.
  • Support investor and management reporting with clear, actionable insights.
  • Partner directly with ownership to guide financial strategy and performance.
  • Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or related field (CPA / CMA strongly preferred).
  • 5+ years of progressive finance / accounting experience; hospitality, QSR, or multi-unit operations experience highly preferred.
  • Strong command of financial statements, budgeting, and cost control.
  • Proficiency with ERP / accounting systems (QuickBooks, NetSuite, SAP, or similar).
  • Advanced Excel and strong data analysis skills.
  • Highly organized, detail-oriented, and tech-savvy.
  • Collaborative leadership style with the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, scaling environment.
  • Compensation & Benefits

  • Base Salary : $120,000 – $135,000
  • Bonuses : Annual performance bonus + 8% additional bonus
  • Healthcare : $2,000 monthly stipend
  • PTO : 2–3 weeks (TBD)
  • Career Growth : Clear path to CFO role as the company expands
  • Additional Perks : Join a brand with secured funding, ambitious expansion, and direct exposure to ownership
  • Work Structure

  • ~50 hours per week (Monday–Friday)
  • Initial remote flexibility, transitioning into in-office, 5 days per week at our new Manhattan headquarters
  • Reports directly to the CEO and Ownership
  • ✨ This is more than a Controller role — it’s a chance to become a future CFO and play a pivotal role in shaping the financial foundation during a transformative period of growth. If you’re passionate about finance, hospitality, and building the future of dining in New York, we want to hear from you.
