  • Act as the primary monitor/owner of the Pricing Admin Email Inbox—the intake channel for pricing requests from vendors, sales, procurement, and sourcing.

  • Ensuring changes are completed in alignment with deadlines and internal controls.
  • Ensure transactional price updates follow established guidance (directional moves aligned to cost changes, without independent “strategy adders”).
• Escalations, Exception Handling & Cross‑Functional Coordination

• Reporting, Monitoring & Process Improvement
