Head of Pricing
Location:Greater Manchester / Hybrid working
Job Type: Contract, Full-Time hours
Salary: £750 – £800 per day via Umbrella
A senior pricing opportunity where your decisions genuinely move the numbers.
We’re looking for an ambitious, commercially minded Head of Pricing to take ownership of the pricing strategy for a high-volume consumer business operating within the travel and transport sector.
This is a role for someone who doesn’t just analyse pricing — you shape it.
You’ll own the strategic pricing agenda across a complex, high-volume product portfolio, using demand, capacity, competitor and customer signals to make fast, commercially intelligent decisions.
What you’ll be doing
Own and lead the overall pricing strategy, including rate architecture, lead-time curves, seasonality and discount discipline.
Turn booking pace, demand and market intelligence into decisive pricing action.
Own pricing-led revenue inputs into annual budgets, forecasts and longer-term financial plans.
Drive revenue, yield and EBITDA performance, balancing volume with margin.
Lead a robust test-and-learn agenda across price points, floor prices, lead times and product mix.
Provide senior-level performance insight and commercial commentary, clearly articulating risks, opportunities and recommended actions.
Lead and develop a small revenue management team while working closely with Marketing, E-commerce, Performance Marketing and other commercial stakeholders.
Act as the senior voice for pricing and trading, influencing commercial strategy at leadership level.
What we’re looking for
You’ll be an experienced revenue management or pricing professional with a strong commercial instinct and a track record of delivering growth.
Ideally, you’ll bring:
A strong background in travel, transport, hospitality or another dynamic consumer sector.
Proven success in creating and executing pricing strategies that deliver revenue and yield growth.
Experience owning or contributing to annual budgeting and longer-term financial planning.
Strong analytical capability and confidence working with large datasets, Excel, BI and revenue management/pricing platforms.
The ability to turn complex data into clear commercial decisions.
A rigorous test-and-learn mindset.
The confidence to challenge assumptions, make difficult pricing calls and operate effectively under senior scrutiny.
Experience leading people and influencing across a matrixed commercial environment.
Why this role?
This is an opportunity to take genuine ownership of pricing strategy in a commercially significant business.
You’ll have the autonomy to shape pricing decisions, influence senior stakeholders and build a modern revenue management approach — with a clear connection between your decisions and the bottom line.
If you’re a strategic pricing leader who thrives in a fast-moving environment and wants a role where commercial judgement matters, we’d love to hear from you.
