Cost Controller (M/F/NB) - [OPENING]

Founded in 2008 by Serge Trigano and his sons Jérémie and Benjamin (co-founders of Club Med), Mama Shelter is a creator of living spaces and a daily director! 

These are atypical places, where everyone feels at home, places born of a blend of influences, freedoms, sensations and emotions. Each Mama tells the story of the city in which it is located, and all influences blend together. We offer our guests a joyful atmosphere and exceptional service at an affordable price.  

More than just rooms and restaurants, Mama Shelter is a dynamic, a vibe: they are true urban refuges, not only aesthetically pleasing and modern but also popular, welcoming and sexy. 

Whatever your role, we're all here to make the customer experience as unforgettable as possible.  

Our mission: to bring little moments of happiness to people. 

Our growth has enabled us to offer our teams great career paths through internal development and international mobility, and it's not a question of diplomas or years of experience. 

Mama Shelter is part of Ennismore, a creative hotel group rooted in cultures and destinations, with a global portfolio of brands. Ennismore is a joint venture with Accor, founded in 2021.

Our commitment to diversity and inclusion:  

Mama is an inclusive company, and our ambition is to recruit and promote diverse talent. Our advertisements are gender-neutral, so the masculine gender is used here to lighten the text.  

Would you like to participate to the opening of our new Mama Shelter in Zürich?

YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT:

As our Cost Controller, you’ll be the backstage genius keeping everything profitable without ever compromising on Mama’s legendary vibe.

Here’s what you’ll be responsible for:

• Costing Like a Boss: You’ll work hand in hand with the F&B team to build and maintain technical sheets, calculate ideal selling prices, and ensure each dish is as profitable as it is delicious. 🍽️
• Stock Supervision: Spot checks, requisitions, inventory – you’ve got eyes on everything that moves, ensuring stock is tracked and discrepancies are investigated. 🕵️‍♀️
• Purchasing Master: You’ll ensure that our purchasing process is smooth and savvy – verifying orders, cross-checking invoices, and negotiating with suppliers when prices start getting a little too creative. 🧐
• Master of Costs: You’ll track costs and ratios across all hotel departments — from F&B to Guest Supplies to the Shop. You’ll lead Menu Engineering Meetings with the F&B team, dive into Cost of Sales analysis, and deliver daily, weekly, and monthly reports that help boost the bottom line. 💰
• POS Pro: You’ll help set up and maintain the system, create menu items, train the newbies, and ensure the system runs like a well-oiled machine. ⚙️
• Month-End Mastermind: Inventory, accruals, transfers, etc. – when the month comes to a close, you’ll make sure all transactions are perfectly accounted for. 🧮
• Cross-Department Connector: You’ll work with F&B, Housekeeping, Front Office, and more like a true team player, supporting everyone while keeping an eye on the numbers. 🤝

MADE FOR YOU? ONLY IF…

• You’re not discovering cost control, and preferably neither the hospitality and/or restauration sector. 🏨
• You are detail-obsessed, nothing escapes your laser-sharp eyes, and you catch every little discrepancy before anyone else. 👀
• You love numbers, they’re your best friends, and you know how to make them work for you. Excel is your happy place 💻.
• You’re super organized and used to multitasking, you prioritize like a pro, even with an inventory list in one hand and a supplier call in the other. 📋
• You enjoy being close to the operations and collaborating with chefs, bartenders, housekeeping, and your finance crew. 🧑‍🤝‍🧑.
• You’re curious, independent, and love solving problems. 💡

YOUR LITTLE EXTRAS:

• For you, the opening phase is where you launch profitability to the moon 🌚… or maybe just on good tracks. 🛤️
• You master hospitality softwares such as Simphony, Opera and Sun Systems softwares.  🖥️
• You’re both fun and meticulous, because at Mama, we take our good vibes as seriously as our budgets.

We’re sure you know the beat🎶:

1st verse: We set up a first telephone interview with our HR if your application moves to our rhythm.
Chorus: After the successful telephone interview, we will see you at Mama, be ready!
(chorus x2 depending on the position)
Last verse: Mama won’t leave you wondering; you will have an answer from us whatever the outcome.
