The Senior Pricing Analyst is responsible for advancing the Category Pricing function at Whole Foods Market and developing and maintaining analytical pricing direction for a group of categories using statistical software and analysis. A key differentiator for this Senior-Level position is independence and a clear understanding and ability to communicate the strategic role of pricing in attaining organizational goals.
More specifically, the Senior Pricing Analyst will directly support the Center Store Merchandising Category Managers with pricing analytics. Day-to-day duties will include using a combination of internal and external pricing tools and business processes to recommend and manage pricing for a set of categories.

For example - using data access tools or SQL to pull and merge a complex data set from internal and external sources, applying linear regression (or another appropriate technique) to gain insight, and using Tableau to create a visualization that clearly shows what we’ve learned.

Responsibilities:

  • Pricing Strategy:
    • Collaborate with pricing and merchandising leadership to understand business issues, develop data and translate into appropriate pricing strategies
  • Analytical Influence and Leadership:
    • Educate and influence business partners to improve understanding/reliance on advanced analytics
    • Develop analytical presentations and communicate them to merchandising leadership
  • Category Analytics:

    • Evaluate effectiveness of pricing methods and rules. Identify opportunities and recommend refinements to the rules that drive our pricing recommendations
