About

We’re looking for a VP of Pricing Solutions who can lead the review, development and implementation of a cutting-edge AI-powered pricing solution. You will spearhead the creation of a new function focussed on leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques to adopt dynamic pricing models that adapt to real-time conditions. 

This is a unique opportunity to own a high-impact product that sits at the heart of our commercial success across a growing portfolio. You’ll define the vision, build the team and deliver a solution that leverages real-time data, predictive modelling and machine learning to optimise pricing decisions at scale.

• Review and implement advanced mathematical models, optimisation algorithms, and machine learning techniques to predict demand, optimise pricing, and maximise revenue
• Leverage historical, geographic economic and market data to create a robust pricing strategy
• Lean on the group architecture team to ensure AI solutions are robust, explainable, and compliant with data security and privacy regulations
• Use AI to integrate real-time data feeds (competitor analysis, customer traffic, events, capacity) into pricing algorithms to dynamically adjust pricing
• Develop key metrics to evaluate the impact of pricing strategies and identify areas for improvement
• Stay ahead of emerging trends in AI and pricing - bringing innovation and cutting-edge thinking into everything we build

What you can bring to our team: 

• A strong academic background (Masters or PhD) in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, or a related field
• Experience in pricing, AI, data science or algorithm design - with a track record of building and deploying real-time pricing or recommendation systems
• Deep technical knowledge of machine learning frameworks (e.g. TensorFlow, PyTorch), cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and big data tools (e.g. Spark, Hadoop)
• Experience of designing and/or implementing business critical operational algorithms 
• Clear communication skills; experienced communicating with senior stakeholders and the ability to translate complex technical solutions into business impact
• Excellent problem-solving and project management skills
• A strategic, commercially focused mindset - and a passion for using data and AI to solve real-world problems at scale
• Experience with data structure design and implementation
