The business is Europe's leading live entertainment platform, owning over 80 festivals including major rock, electronic, and Gen Z-focused events. With F and B playing a huge part in the overall revenue. Working directly alongside the F and B Strategy Lead, the F and B Junior Analyst will help build the evidence base that will shape the company's F and B strategy for the next 5 years. This is not a standard FP and A role. The Junior F and B Analyst will work with messy, live event data from multiple systems and help turn it into clear commercial recommendations. This is a 6 months FTC role, whilst there is an opportunity for the role to become permanent, this isn't guaranteed.
Data Consolidation and Cleaning (First 8 weeks)
- Pull sales, volume, and margin data from the existing POS system (Square) across multiple festivals and venues.
- Work with local finance teams across Iberia, Netherlands, UK, and Germany to standardise reporting.
- Investigate why all data is not in one plan and help build a single source of truth in PowerBI.
Comparative Operating Model Analysis
- Model the financial and operational performance of in-house F and B vs outsourced partners (major contract caterers).
- Compare good examples vs poor examples within the company's own network.
- Benchmark national team performance across different countries.
Supporting the 3-Month Recommendation
- By month 3, the F and B Strategy Lead will present a final recommendation on the right level of F and B expertise per country.
- You will own the data appendix behind that recommendation: every chart, every unit economics assumption, every variance.
Who You Are
- 1-2 years experience in a data or analyst role (internships included): ideally in hospitality, retail, events, or QSR.
- Comfortable with Square POS data or similar EPOS systems.
- Strong PowerBI user: you can connect to multiple data sources and build clear, executive-ready dashboards.
- Commercially curious: you don't just report numbers; you ask, why is this bar outperforming that bar?
- Comfortable with ambiguity: you will be working in a decentralised, post-acquisition environment where data is not always perfect.
Nice to Have
- Experience working with live events, festivals, or stadiums.
- Familiarity with outsourced F and B models (major contract caterers).
- Basic SQL or Python for ad-hoc data pulls.
