Job Title: Catalogue Executive (Analyst) (Hotel Management Graduates are Welcome)

Department: Catalogue

Location: Bangalore

Reporting To: Catalogue & Onboarding Manager

Role Overview

The Catalogue Executive (Analyst) is responsible for managing and optimising the product and menu catalogue with a strong focus on food accuracy, cuisine integrity, and menu logic. This role is ideal for someone who understands food deeply—not just as data, but as cuisine, combinations, and customer consumption behaviour. The individual will ensure that menus are structured in a way that makes culinary sense, drives discoverability, and improves conversion, while maintaining high data accuracy across platforms.

Key Responsibilities

The Catalogue Executive will own the accuracy and quality of food and menu data across all catalogue platforms. This includes ensuring that dish names, descriptions, cuisine tags, categories, pricing, portioning logic, and availability are correctly represented and aligned with how customers actually order food.

A strong understanding of cuisines, menu flows, and dish pairings is essential, as the role involves structuring menus in a way that feels intuitive and appetising to customers. They will regularly audit menus and catalogue listings to identify gaps such as incorrect cuisine mapping, poor menu sequencing, mismatched combos, or confusing product groupings. Based on analysis, they will recommend improvements that enhance menu clarity, upsell opportunities, and overall customer experience.

The role also involves supporting menu launches, new dish additions, and seasonal updates by ensuring all food-related information is complete, consistent, and go-live ready. Food, Cuisine & Menu Understanding A core requirement of this role is hands-on experience in the food industry.

The candidate must have a working understanding of Indian cuisines (and/or relevant global cuisines), typical menu structures, dish combinations, thali logic, add-ons, sides, accompaniments, and pricing psychology. They should be able to assess whether a menu makes sense from a food perspective, not just a data perspective, and flag issues that could confuse customers or impact ordering behaviour.

Analytical & Data Ownership The role requires strong analytical skills to track and evaluate catalogue and menu performance.

The Catalogue Executive will analyse metrics such as item-level performance, menu visibility, conversion trends, price sensitivity, availability impact, and customer feedback, and translate these insights into actionable recommendations.

They will work extensively with spreadsheets and dashboards to maintain clean master data and monitor catalogue health, ensuring that food data flows correctly into downstream systems like POS, supply chain, and analytics tools.

Stakeholder Collaboration The Catalogue Executive will work closely with culinary teams, category managers, operations, and tech teams to ensure menus are accurately represented and operationally viable.

They will act as a bridge between food teams and data systems, ensuring that culinary intent is preserved while maintaining system accuracy.

Clear communication and documentation of changes is critical to avoid errors and operational disruptions.

Skills & Qualifications

The ideal candidate has prior experience in the food industry, such as food-tech, cloud kitchens, QSRs, restaurants, FMCG food brands, or marketplaces.

They should have a strong understanding of cuisines, menu engineering, and food combinations, along with excellent attention to detail.

Advanced proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets is essential, and familiarity with catalogue systems, POS data, or BI tools is a strong advantage.

The role requires someone who is structured, process-oriented, and comfortable working with both food teams and data teams.

Strong ownership, problem-solving ability, and clarity of communication are key to success. Experience Candidates with 1–3 years of experience in food catalogue management, menu planning, food operations, category management, or analytical roles within the food industry are preferred.

Candidates with strong food knowledge and analytical aptitude, even from adjacent roles, will also be considered.

Why This Role Matters

Menus are not just lists of items—they shape customer decisions, kitchen operations, and revenue outcomes.

This role ensures that food is represented accurately, logically, and attractively across platforms, directly impacting customer experience, conversion, and operational efficiency.

It is a high-ownership role with strong exposure to food, data, and business decision-making.
