What will I be doing?
This position plays a key role in supporting the company’s profitable growth through financial analysis and pricing insights. Working within the Pricing team, this individual will leverage financial and operational analysis to support pricing decisions, contract renewals, commercial decision-making, and business performance.

This individual will also collaborate with Senior Leadership, Retention, Commercial Finance, Legal, Product Management, and Technology to support key client relationships and ensure accurate, timely execution.
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced analyst who enjoys solving problems, building structure, and working in a dynamic environment. As the Pricing team continues to evolve its processes and ways of working, the successful candidate will bring curiosity, initiative, sound judgment, and comfort navigating changing priorities. They will ask thoughtful questions, speak up when clarification is needed, and take ownership of moving work forward.
Direct pricing experience is helpful but not required. Candidates with experience in FP&A, financial analysis, commercial finance, revenue analysis, business analysis, or another analytical function are encouraged to apply.
