Job description

Join a high-impact leadership role where pricing is a key driver of business performance, growth and transformation. As Pricing Manager Southern Europe, you will lead a diverse regional team while shaping the pricing strategy. Working closely with senior leadership, you will play a critical role in accelerating pricing maturity, driving profitable growth and embedding a modern, value-based pricing culture across the region.

What You Will Do

• Develop and execute a value-based pricing strategy that supports regional commercial objectives, profitability targets, and sustainable growth.
• Lead, coach, and develop a team of approximately 10 pricing professionals, creating an environment where people can grow, perform, and succeed.
• Partner with Sales, Finance, and senior business leaders to influence strategic decisions and maximize commercial opportunities.
• Drive pricing transformation initiatives, including process standardization, automation, and the implementation of digital pricing tools.
• Build alignment across multiple countries, functions, and stakeholders within a complex matrix organization.
• Establish and oversee pricing governance, including pricing policies, discount frameworks, controls, and approval processes.
• Ensure consistency and alignment across pricing, tendering, and contract management activities.
• Translate pricing insights and market dynamics into actionable business recommendations that support revenue growth and margin improvement.

What You Will Need

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Business, Finance, Economics, or a related field or equivalent experience
• Minimum 8 years of experience in Pricing, Commercial Finance, Revenue Management, or related commercial functions
• Direct team leadership experience, including team management and talent development responsibilities
• Experience leading pricing transformation, process improvement, or business change initiatives
• Fluency in English plus Italian or Spanish

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience managing large and complex product portfolios
• Professional experience working across multiple countries or international business environments
• Experience developing and implementing large-scale pricing and margin optimization strategies

Location: Rome is the preferred location for this role due to the highly specific nature of the Italian market and the need for close engagement with key stakeholders and teams based in Italy. Candidates based in Madrid will be considered if they bring significant exposure to the Italian market, experience working with Italian teams, and are willing to travel regularly to Rome, particularly during the onboarding period and key business milestones.

Why This Role Stands Out

This opportunity is ideal for a leader who enjoys building teams, navigating complexity, and driving change. Beyond pricing expertise, we are looking for someone who brings energy and a genuine passion for people leadership. If you are motivated by transforming organizations, influencing senior stakeholders, and delivering tangible business impact in a fast-moving international environment, this role offers an strong platform to make a difference.
