• Support fair, accurate, and compliant pricing through strong governance, testing, and risk management. 
• Contribute to continuous improvement, automation, and transformation across pricing analytics and systems.
• Engage with internal stakeholders from all divisions to ensure that there is awareness of technical pricing process recommendations

We are looking for:

• Background in data science, analytics, or data governance, with an understanding of GDPR and data governance principles. 
• Experience working with complex datasets and databases, supporting analysis and system delivery. 
• Strong analytical, problem‑solving, and attention‑to‑detail skills, with a creative and results‑driven mindset.
