Pricing Operations Manager London, England
Job description
We're a leading online reviews platform, free and open to all. Our mission is to be a universal symbol of trust. We are well on our way — but there's still an exciting journey ahead of us. Do you want to join us at the heart of trust?
As the Pricing & Monetization team expands, we are seeking a Pricing Operations Manager to help run the day to day operations of Trustpilot's Pricing function. Reporting into the Head of Pricing and Monetization, you will be responsible for different areas of the function's operations, making sure that they run smoothly and without issues, building new structures and processes where needed, answering day to day questions from stakeholders, and reporting on our business performance.
One of the main responsibilities of the role is to launch and maintain our rate cards globally across the front and back books, ensuring our prices are competitive and reflective of the value we offer customers. This will include in depth research and data analyses to understand what prices we should charge taking into account external factors such as macroeconomic environment, competition, value for customers, in addition to all the go to market elements and maintenance process that you will need to build.
Globally, you will be the pricing lead of tools such as Salesforce and Zuora (our billing platform), acting as a middle-person between Commercial teams and Technical teams to clearly and concisely surface requirements and brainstorm solutions in order to improve our tools.
High levels of attention to detail and willingness to create order in unstructured situations will be fundamental for the successful candidate. As part of this role, you will be tasked to create new processes and standard operating procedures (SOPs) to govern the way we deploy price changes, control promotional and discounting spend, and approve deviations from said operating procedures.
Sharp strategic thinking will also be fundamental in this role. You will need to build a vision of how things 'should work', taking into account the team's strategy, our financial commitments, our product constraints and the end users, and you will need to be able to pitch your ideas, bringing stakeholders along the journey with you.
In addition to the above, you will love diving deep into data. The Pricing & Monetization team is responsible for driving Trustpilot's revenue and we work closely with our finance department and commercial organization to make sure that as a company we are on track to hit our targets (and suggest corrective actions if we are not). A key part of the role includes weekly and monthly reporting and supporting the Head of Pricing and Monetization in preparing materials and delivering presentations for executive-level meetings.
What you'll be doing:
- Manage the yearly process for new rate cards deployment, from analysis of which price points we should be charging by region taking into account demand elasticity and market dynamics, to business cases and go-to-market, interfacing with different internal stakeholders to make sure everyone is informed and aligned on the changes.
- Partner with our Commercial teams globally, to understand their pain points and how our team can better support them in servicing our customers, funneling regional requirements in a central roadmap.
- Review and improve pricing processes globally, creating new processes where they do not exist, constantly identifying opportunities areas and building a vision of 'what good looks like' around pricing-related controls and approvals.
- Be the pricing owner of tools such as Salesforce and Zuora (our billing platform), working closely with our Commercial organization to understand how to improve these tools and what features could add the most value to our teams.
- Support the Head of Pricing and Monetization in monthly reporting of pricing-related business performance, identifying and deep diving into variances to target and proposing solutions on how to improve performance when needed.
- Constantly collaborate with your pricing colleagues to make sure our plans are priced competitively and in accordance to the value we provide to customers.
Who you are:
- Working knowledge of Salesforce and/or Zuora is beneficial but not required.
- Experience in highly matrixed companies, ideally in a pricing function, with proven ability to deliver autonomously in fast-paced environments and to drive business results.
- High level of attention to detail, with demonstrated experience in building processes from scratch to bring structure into heavily unstructured and fast moving environments.
- Experience in experimentation and statistical knowledge of how to set up A/B testing in order to test hypotheses, with a focus on commercial delivery
- Familiarity with different pricing and subscription models across SaaS and B2B markets
- Project management certifications (Six Sigma, PRINCE2, etc) are a bonus
- Previous SaaS B2B experience or marketplace/ecommerce experience is a bonus
What's in it for you:
- A range of flexible working options to dedicate time to what matters to you
- Competitive compensation package + bonus
- 28 days holiday plus two (paid) volunteering days a year to spend your time giving back to the causes that matter to you and your community
- Rich learning and development opportunities supported through the Trustpilot Academy, LinkedIn Learning and Blinkist
- Pension and life insurance
- Health cash plan, online GP, 24/7, Employee Assistance Plan
- Full access to Headspace, a popular mindfulness app to promote positive mental health
- Paid parental leave
- Season ticket loan and a cycle to work scheme
- Central office location complete with table tennis, a gaming corner, coffee bars and all the snacks and refreshments you can ask for
- Regular opportunities to connect and get to know your fellow Trusties, including company-wide celebrations and events, ERG activities and team socials.
- Free breakfast and lunch in the office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays along with extra treats throughout the month — think ice cream carts, chocolate fountains and cocktail/mocktail bars, to name a few
- Access to over 4,000 deals and discounts on things like travel, electronics, fashion, fitness, cinema discounts and more.
- Independent financial advice and free standard professional mortgage broker advice
Still not sure?
We are Open to All, which means we want everyone to feel like they can see themselves at Trustpilot. We're keen to hear about your experiences as well as how you can help to create a fantastic culture for our amazing Trusties. So, don't worry if you're looking at this job description and feel like you don't meet all the requirements, we'd still really like to hear from you!
