About the Team 

The Pricing Strategy & Commercialisation team sits within the Product Organization and is Unit4's internal authority on how we price and position our products. Our mission is to optimize Unit4's economic value through world-class pricing strategy, governance and execution across the entire Product portfolio - ensuring our pricing model reflects the genuine value we deliver to customers whilst supporting Unit4's revenue and ARR growth targets. 

We are a small, high-impact team. Current priorities include AI pricing strategy, new Pricing & Packaging (P&P) strategy execution, and KPI framework & governance development. 

Our key business partners span CPO, CTO, CRO, CSO and CFO organizations, making cross-functional influence and commercial credibility as important as technical pricing expertise. 

The Role 

As Principal Pricing Analyst, you will serve as Unit4's internal pricing subject matter expert across the Unit4 Product Portfolio - the analytical and strategic engine behind our most complex and high-impact pricing work. This is a senior individual contributor role for a deep practitioner who combines mastery of SaaS pricing economics with the presence and communication skills to shape decisions at the highest levels of the organisation. 

You will work closely with the Senior Director of Pricing & Commercialisation to define and codify Unit4's pricing principles, governance frameworks and long-term monetisation strategy. A core focus of this role is leading the development and execution of Unit4's AI pricing strategy defining a predictable, commercially deployable framework for monetizing our AI capabilities, as well as leveraging AI tools for dynamic pricing, demand forecasting and price optimization day to day. 

You will lead key pricing projects, oversee price modelling and packaging from launch to discount governance, drive pricing transformation, and mentor junior staff while strengthening pricing skills across the business.
