• Analysing pricing performance, margins and customer behaviour to identify opportunities for improvement
• Supporting integration of acquisitions from a pricing and commercial perspective
• Building pricing capability within the business, with scope to develop a team over time

About You:

You are a commercially driven pricing leader with the ability to combine strategic thinking and hands-on delivery. You are confident working cross-functionally and have a track record of influencing sales teams and senior stakeholders.

You will bring:

• Proven experience in a senior pricing role within a Retail or B2B environment
• Strong understanding of pricing architecture, segmentation and value-based pricing
• Experience implementing new pricing processes, tools and governance frameworks
• Exposure to loyalty programmes or customer incentive structures
• A collaborative approach, with experience working closely with sales teams
• Strong analytical skills and confidence working with data to drive decisions
• A proactive, change-oriented mindset, comfortable operating in a fast-evolving business

Why Apply?

This is a high-impact role within a growing, PE-backed business where pricing is recognised as a key lever for value creation. You will have the opportunity to build a function from the ground up, influence strategic direction and play a central role in the next phase of growth.
