About the Role

As Director of Pricing and Deal Strategy, you will be a high-level individual contributor responsible for developing and executing pricing strategies that maximize revenue and profitability for our products, and then working with our teams to bring these pricing strategies to life with our customers and prospects. This role is a mix of strategy and implementation/execution.

You will work closely with cross-functional teams, including Product Management, Sales, Customer Experience, Finance, and Marketing, to ensure our pricing models are competitive, aligned with market trends, and effectively communicated to our employees, customers, and prospects. You’ll partner closely with Sales and Customer Success to find the right pricing, discount, and deal configuration approach for strategic deals and customers.

We are seeking a leader who can work in a highly collaborative fashion with Product Management, Leadership, Marketing, and other teams to devise the right pricing strategies and put them into practice with customers and prospects.

We have a strong preference to hire this role in the New York Metropolitan Area (NY, New Jersey, CT) to take advantage of our hybrid work space in Manhattan.

Your responsibilities:

  3. Collaborate with Product Management to define pricing models, structures, and guidelines that support product positioning and go-to-market strategies.
  4. Work with Finance to build pricing models and financial forecasts, ensuring alignment with business objectives and revenue targets.
  5. Partner with Sales to develop pricing proposals, discount strategies, and promotional programs that drive customer acquisition and retention. You’ll do this both programmatically and with specific deals. Use these learnings to inform revisions to pricing models and approaches.
  6. Partner with Customer Experience to ensure successful rollout and communications of new pricing programs for our current clients.
  7. Create and deliver pricing communication materials, including pricing guides, value propositions, and training sessions for internal and external stakeholders.
  8. Monitor and analyze pricing performance against our financial targets, customer feedback, and market conditions to continuously optimize pricing strategies and tactics.
  9. Stay informed about industry trends, regulatory changes, and emerging pricing methodologies to ensure our pricing practices remain competitive and compliant.

Your Qualifications:

  1. Bachelor's degree in Marketing, Business, Economics, or a related field; MBA or advanced degree preferred.
  2. 12+ years of proven experience in pricing strategy, deal desk, or related roles within a technology or SaaS company.
  3. Strong analytical skills with the ability to interpret complex data and make data-driven decisions.
  4. Excellent communication and presentation skills, with the ability to articulate pricing strategies to diverse audiences.
  5. Proficiency in market research, competitive analysis, and financial modeling.
  6. Demonstrated ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams and manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  7. Strong understanding of pricing methodologies (particularly consumption-based pricing), value-based pricing, and pricing optimization techniques.
  8. Proficiency in tools such as Excel and CRM systems.
