 Analyse "Slow Moving" and "Dead Stock" reports, advising the General Manager and Department Heads on clearance strategies to free up working capital

 Monitor the "Receiving Bay" operations to ensure that goods entering the property match the quality, quantity, and price specified on the Purchase Orders

 <li>
 Work with the Executive Chef to calculate accurate recipe costing cards for every menu item, ensuring the sales price achieves the target margin
 </li>
 <li>
 Produce the Daily/Weekly Food &amp; Beverage Cost Report, highlighting any spikes in consumption that do not correlate with sales revenue

 <li>
 Audit the "Spoilage and Waste" logs to ensure that discarded items are recorded correctly and do not simply vanish

 <li>
 Verify the cost of "Officer Checks" (Staff Meals) and "Entertainment" checks to ensure internal consumption is allocated to the correct expense codes
 
 
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 Retail &amp; Operational Analysis

 Verify the margins on new retail collections before they hit the floor, ensuring the "Landing Cost" (shipping + duties) is factored into the final retail price
 </li>
 <li>
 Audit the consumption of fuel and chemicals in the Agronomy department against the maintenance schedule
 </li>
 <li>
 Review the "Par Levels" established for all operational supplies, adjusting them seasonally to prevent over-ordering

 <li>
 Minimum of 4-6 years of experience in Cost Control, specifically within a 5-star hotel, resort, or large-scale catering operation
