Hospitality Commercial Consultancy
Margins are won in tenths of a point.
Labour optimisation, profit maximisation and commercial improvement for restaurant and hospitality businesses — built by an operator, not just advised by one. I've run the P&L, not just reviewed it.
What I do
ServicesLabour optimisation
Rota structuring, labour-to-sales modelling and demand-matched scheduling that cuts cost without cutting service — the single biggest lever in most hospitality P&Ls.
Profit maximisation & commercial improvement
Pricing, purchasing, waste and menu mix reviewed together — not in isolation — to find and hold margin gains that survive contact with a live trading business.
Financial modelling & business planning
Investor-grade P&L, cashflow and unit economics models built for restaurant and multi-site hospitality groups — for growth planning, fundraising or operational control.
Site feasibility & opportunity scoring
Structured, numbers-led assessment of new sites and expansion opportunities, so decisions are made on evidence rather than instinct.
Menu engineering
Menu structure and pricing analysed against true food cost and customer behaviour, to lift contribution without damaging the guest experience.
Fractional commercial leadership
Hands-on commercial and operational leadership for founder-led hospitality businesses moving through growth, transition or turnaround.
Track record
Operator backgroundApproach
How I workEvidence, not instinct
Every recommendation is grounded in the model, the rota, or the menu mix — not a general playbook applied without context.
Built to be run, not just presented
Having sat on the P&L as MD and Director, the output is built for operators to implement immediately, not to sit in a deck.
Fit for growing hospitality businesses
Most at home working with founder-led and multi-site hospitality businesses moving through growth, transition or turnaround.
