The demand for experienced and educated pricing professionals continues to grow. The GM of Pricing Strategy role described below is an extract from a recently advertised role (January 2013).

Even as recently as 5 years ago, a General Manager of Pricing role did not exist. Today the businesses today are faced with the task of managing large revenue bases with contracting gross margins and EBIT %.
This makes every point of margin crucial to achieving the profit budget for the operating year. A dedicated pricing function is now a crucial strategic pillar for nearly every Fortune 500 and many ASX 500 companies.

Companies are willing to invest in talented pricing professionals with a focus on hiring pricing expertise plus high levels of emotiional intelligence and influencing ability at senior levels. In turn, salaries continue to rise outpacing average age increases and often matching C-level salaries of mid tier companies.

“As the General Manager of Pricing Strategy, you will support global pricing excellence through the development of price elasticity models and other technically rigorous analytical tools. Your key duties will include:
