Senior Commercial Analyst (Pricing & Product Data)
Turn Data into Commercial Decisions
Northampton | Hybrid Working
£55,000 + Bonus (OTE circa £65k) + Pension + 25 Days Holiday + Bank Holidays (32 Days Total) + Career Development Opportunities
Do you enjoy working with data, improving processes and helping businesses make better commercial decisions?
We’re looking for a commercially minded analyst with strong Excel and systems skills to take ownership of pricing, product data and commercial reporting across a large and diverse product portfolio.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a successful, growing business where your analysis will directly influence pricing strategy, profitability and business performance.
Industry experience isn’t the priority. If you’ve developed strong analytical, reporting and commercial skills in manufacturing, engineering, wholesale, distribution, retail, FMCG or another product-led environment, we’d love to hear from you.
What You’ll Be Doing
Working closely with Sales, Purchasing, Operations and suppliers, you’ll:
Develop and manage pricing models across a large product portfolio.
Analyse commercial and pricing data to identify trends, risks and opportunities.
Produce reports and dashboards that support better business decisions.
Help improve pricing, reporting and business processes.
Maintain accurate product and pricing data across business systems.
Support commercial teams with data-driven recommendations and pricing insight.
Work with large SKU portfolios to improve profitability and operational efficiency.
What We’re Looking For
You’ll probably already be working as a Pricing Analyst, Commercial Analyst, Business Analyst, Category Analyst or in another commercially focused analytical role.
We’re particularly interested in people who have:
Advanced Microsoft Excel skills and confidence working with large data sets.
Experience analysing commercial, pricing or product data.
Strong reporting and analytical skills with the ability to present information clearly.
Experience using ERP or business management systems such as SAP, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics or similar.
A track record of improving processes, reporting or commercial performance.
Excellent attention to detail and the confidence to work across multiple business functions.
Experience with Power BI or other Business Intelligence tools would be an advantage, but isn’t essential.
Why Join?
This is much more than a traditional pricing role.
You’ll have the opportunity to influence commercial strategy, improve business processes and become the go-to expert for pricing and product data within a collaborative and forward-thinking business.
If you enjoy solving problems, challenging the status quo and turning complex data into meaningful commercial insight, this is an opportunity where you’ll genuinely make an impact.

JOB DESCRIPTION
Solving challenges is the very foundation of who we are. After all, in the beginning, our founder, sea captain Robert Fergusson, didn't particularly care about paint. When he founded our company in 1921, he just wanted to keep his ship intact and stumbled upon a valuable solution. Today, that discovery is Rust-Oleum Corporation.
The same passion that drove the Captain to spend his next few years creating the world's first rust-preventative paint still drives us today. When we see a problem, we work diligently until we've perfected a solution, which has led to some of the most cutting edge, durable and innovative products in the industry. Our creative and talented team of over 2000 people across every corner of the world, help us remain the global leader in protective paints and coatings for both home and industry.
