As a Pricing Consultant, you will work within the Pricing Management department. Together with your colleagues, you will focus on affordability for the customer, in the broadest sense of the word. Pricing is about finding the right balance. Customers must be able to trust that they can do affordable shopping at Albert Heijn. At the same time, our prices must generate a healthy margin so that we can continue to invest in our stores, our assortment, and our colleagues. You make an impact by implementing improvements in, among other things, selling prices, brand and assortment structure, and the price perception of Albert Heijn.

With 125,000 colleagues, spread across more than 1,250 stores in the Netherlands and Flanders, nine home shop centers, six distribution centers, a flower center, and our head office, Albert Heijn fills more than seven million baskets every evening.

Your new job and workplace.
As a Pricing Consultant, you make a direct contribution to the affordability of our offering. You do this not alone, but together with your colleagues from the commercial team. You work intensively with your direct colleagues in Pricing and with surrounding teams such as Data Science & Analytics, Commercial Steering, and Promo. It is a challenging role, because much is at play regarding affordability. Think of how our prices relate to those of competitors, how we realize a logical price structure between A-brands and private labels, and how customers experience our prices. It is up to you to ensure that this, carefully and in good coordination, leads to a strong price-value proposition for our customers.

In addition to your contribution to daily pricing decisions, you play an important role in the implementation of our new pricing tool. You ensure that the tool is utilized optimally, guide colleagues in its use, and test with analyses whether the outcomes are correct.

You are the analytical spider in the web of Pricing Management. Strategy, tactics, and execution all touch upon analytics, and you create the connections between them. You signal opportunities to work smarter and faster, manage data flows, develop analyses, and share your insights so that both management and execution can deal with them directly.

• Someone who knows how to interpret and analyze issues quickly and accurately. You gather the necessary data and provide targeted advice based on your analyses.
• Communicatively skilled: you convey your viewpoints clearly and switch well between different stakeholders.
• A connector: you quickly establish contact with people at different levels, both within and outside the organization.
• Someone who loves change and creating new solutions.
• Flexible enough to switch between everyday commercial hecticness and long-term vision.

In short: you are analytically strong, have an eye for detail, and communicate clearly. In this position, you work 40 hours per week, partly from our head office in Zaandam and partly from home.

This is what we offer you.
