Head of Pricing | Automotive Retail | Hybrid
Alderson James is partnering with a leading UK automotive retailer to appoint a Head of Pricing. This is a senior commercial role with ownership of pricing strategy across a large, fast-moving portfolio of used vehicles.
The opportunity is to shape how vehicles are priced from purchase through to sale: balancing margin, speed of sale and stock risk while moving the business towards a more automated, data-driven pricing model.
What you’ll lead
- Set and refine pricing strategy, governance and commercial targets.
- Scale automated pricing so specialists can focus on the vehicles that need their judgement.
- Build dashboards and forecasts that make pricing performance clear and actionable.
- Lead and develop a team of pricing specialists and analysts.
- Work closely with buying, marketing and operational teams on stock mix, allocation and performance.
- Present pricing decisions and results to senior leaders and external partners.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll bring strong analytical and commercial judgement, experience leading a team, and a track record of implementing or scaling algorithmic pricing or a data-driven portfolio capability. Automotive experience is welcome, but we are equally interested in people from travel, hospitality, e-commerce, ride-hailing or other sectors with dynamic demand and complex pricing decisions.

Location: Hybrid, with three days per week across Gillingham, Wimbledon or Camberley, particularly during the first 6–12 months.
If you’ve built a pricing function that turns data into commercial results, we would love to hear from you.
