Pricing Lead; Remote

The Pricing Lead owns pricing strategy and its commercial execution across the enterprise. This role is accountable for price architecture, promotional strategy, and markdown governance — and for translating those decisions into accurate, on-time activation across every channel, system, and customer touchpoint. Reporting into the Pricing organization, the Manager leads a team of analysts and partners with Merchants, Merchandise Finance, Marketing, and E-Commerce to set the pricing calendar, construct and approve offers, and govern the controls that keep pricing accurate in market.

The role owns the connection between the pricing decision and what the customer actually sees. This is a people‑leading role for a commercially minded pricing professional who can hold a defensible margin point of view, run a disciplined activation calendar under hard deadlines, and develop analytical talent.
