• Develop, maintain, and continuously improve dashboards, reporting solutions, analytical tools, and spatial analysis capabilities that provide visibility into Development execution, strategic initiatives, market opportunities, and business performance.

• Ensure analytical outputs, reporting assets, and business recommendations are supported by accurate, validated data and consistent methodologies.

• Maintain a strong understanding of Development systems, business processes, data flows, and geographic datasets, partnering with IT and data teams to support system enhancements, reporting improvements, testing efforts, and analytical innovation initiatives.

• Support restaurant development programs, remodel initiatives, operational rollouts, real estate site selection activities, and other strategic projects through analysis, performance measurement, stakeholder communication, and project leadership.

• Document business processes, reporting definitions, analytical methodologies, spatial analysis standards, and key performance metrics to support consistency, governance, and long-term scalability.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING TO THE TABLE

• High school diploma or general education degree (GED) required.

• Bachelor's Degree (BA/BS) from a 4-year college or university preferred.

• 5-8 years of experience in business analytics, strategy, business intelligence, performance measurement, data management, or related analytical disciplines.
