Strategic Pricing Director

Strategic Pricing Director (Must be onsite 4 days/week in NJ)

A leading global medical technology company is hiring a Strategic Pricing Director to advance and embed value-based pricing across its business units. You'll lead cross‑business initiatives, pricing governance, analytics, and change management to drive sustainable, profitable growth across a global Med Tech portfolio.

This role will define and serve as the bridge between pricing and the sales team in a fast‑paced consumables environment. It will involve significant change management, high contract volume, and complex pricing dynamics.

This is currently an individual contributor role, but strong leadership capability will be essential.

• Partner with R&D, Innovation, and Portfolio Management to embed pricing early — from concept through launch and lifecycle optimization
• Strengthen enterprise pricing governance (decision rights, escalation models, standards) and operationalize a measurement framework with standardized KPIs and reporting cadence
• Drive adoption of pricing methodologies and analytics (SePVA, willingness‑to‑pay, price waterfall, realization/leakage) and build dashboards in tools like Power BI / Minitab
• Apply Lean / continuous improvement principles (standard work, DMS, Kaizen) to pricing processes
• Serve as a trusted pricing advisor to global and regional leadership across Commercial, Marketing, and Finance
• Build pricing capability enterprise‑wide through training, playbooks, and best‑practice sharing

• Bachelor's in Business, Finance, Economics, Marketing, Engineering, or related field; MBA preferred
• 10+ years in strategic pricing, value management, or commercial strategy
• Proven value‑based pricing implementation in complex, multi‑business, global organizations
• Strong ability to influence across functions without direct authority
• Familiarity with health economics, reimbursement dynamics, and customer value outcomes
• Change management leadership across a global matrix
• Advanced analytics capability with executive‑ready storytelling
• Commercial acumen in medical devices, diagnostics, life sciences, or healthcare
