Pricing Anlayst

Pricing Analyst / Senior Pricing Analyst
Location: West Midlands (Hybrid - 4 days per week in the office)
Salary: £40,000 - £48,000 (dependent on experience)
Reporting to: Pricing Director
About the role
A large, multi-site B2B organisation is undergoing a fundamental shift in how pricing is designed, governed, and executed across the business - moving away from historic guideline pricing towards a more market-aligned, analytically driven approach.
This role sits at the centre of that transformation.
As a Pricing Analyst, you'll act as the bridge between commercial strategy and data. You'll help design, test, and embed pricing logic that reflects real market conditions, customer behaviour, and operational reality within a complex wholesale environment.
This is not a reporting-only role. You'll work hands-on with large datasets, pricing models, and market intelligence, partnering closely with senior stakeholders to shape how the business prices, trades, and grows.
What you'll be doing
  • Build and evolve reference pricing models at product and branch level using large, complex datasets
  • Use SQL as a core analytical tool, going well beyond extraction into modelling and transformation
  • Support the shift to more realistic, market-aligned pricing that improves margin quality and basket profitability
  • Incorporate competitive intelligence (e.g. market benchmarks, price scraping outputs, mystery shopping insights) into practical pricing frameworks
  • Work with Python-based pricing models and support their migration into scalable SQL / PySpark environments
  • Translate complex analysis into clear, commercially relevant insight for non-technical stakeholders
  • Act as a trusted interface between Pricing, Finance, Commercial teams, Category teams, and IT
  • Help ensure pricing outputs are credible, intuitive, and usable by branches in day-to-day trading
What we're looking for
Essential
  • 3-5+ years' experience in pricing, commercial analytics, or a data-driven commercial role
  • Strong SQL capability, including working with large datasets and analytical modelling
  • A commercial mindset - able to challenge assumptions and turn data into decisions
  • Experience working closely with business stakeholders, not purely in a technical silo
  • Comfort operating with imperfect or noisy data in real-world commercial environments
Desirable
  • Python, PySpark, or similar analytical/model-driven tools
  • Exposure to B2B pricing, wholesale, distribution, or multi-site trading environments
  • Understanding of ERP-driven pricing processes
  • Power BI or equivalent visualisation tools
  • Experience working with competitor pricing or market intelligence data
Why join?
  • Pricing is a top-tier strategic priority for the organisation
  • You'll be directly involved in reshaping how the business trades in the future
  • Clear progression opportunities within Pricing and into wider Commercial or Finance roles
  • High visibility with senior stakeholders
  • A collaborative, social, office-based environment
This role is ideal for someone who is technically strong, commercially curious, and motivated by change rather than constrained by "how it's always been done".
