Job Description
Project Manager - Fully Remote role (Mandarin speaker required)
Are you a master of turning blank floor plans into bustling F&B destinations? Do you thrive on juggling site selection, negotiations, construction, and grand openings - and still deliver on time and within budget?
We're looking for a results-driven Project Manager to take the lead on our new store projects from A to Z. You'll be the driving force behind our growth, working across departments to deliver high-profile, high-impact store launches.
What you'll be doing
Strategic Planning:
Use GIS heatmaps and consumer data to pinpoint the hottest locations - from thriving shopping malls to busy transport hubs.
Build ROI models, forecast breakeven cycles, and lead the investment approval process.
Site Selection & Negotiation:
Take charge from scouting to signing - securing prime properties, ensuring compliance (fire safety, environmental, licensing), and nailing contract terms.
Work hand-in-hand with Legal and Risk to protect the business.
Project Oversight:
Review designs, lead contractor bids, and oversee construction to guarantee top-quality finishes delivered on time.
Control budgets with precision - keeping variance within ±5%.
Coordinate with Supply Chain for smooth delivery of equipment, furniture, and fixtures.
Opening Preparation:
Drive pre-opening readiness with Operations, Marketing, IT, Finance, and other teams.
Secure all regulatory approvals to ensure smooth, compliant launches.
What we're looking for
Essential:
5+ years' experience in store development in chain restaurants, hospitality, or a similar sector
Proven track record in delivering multiple full-cycle openings
Strong background in fit-out/construction management and compliance
Skilled in commercial property negotiations and landlord relations
Fluent in Mandarin (written and spoken)
Desirable:
PMP certification or Level 1/2 Construction Engineer license (China)
Experience in projects within shopping malls, airports, or major transport hubs
Why join us?
This is not just another project management role - it's a high-visibility, high-impact position where you'll have autonomy, influence, and the satisfaction of seeing your projects come to life.
If you've got the drive, the detail-orientation, and the determination to deliver exceptional new store launches, we want to hear from you.
Please apply with an up-to-date CV.
