- Analyze historical freight data, market rate trends, and carrier costs to recommend competitive and profitable pricing
- Partner with Sales and Carrier Sourcing teams to build pricing proposals for RFPs (Requests for Proposal) and bid responses
- Model margin impact of proposed contract terms and flag deals falling outside target profitability thresholds
- Monitor contract compliance — ensuring invoiced rates match agreed contract terms — and resolve pricing discrepancies
- Track lane-level and account-level profitability over the life of a contract, recommending renegotiation when margins erode
- Maintain pricing databases/tools (TMS, Excel models, or pricing software) with up-to-date rate cards
- Conduct market benchmarking (e.g., DAT, Freightwaves SONAR) to validate pricing against spot and contract market conditions
- Support renewal cycles by analyzing contract performance and preparing renewal/renegotiation recommendations
- Collaborate with Legal/HR/Finance on contract terms that carry pricing implications (fuel escalators, minimum volume commitments, accessorial schedules)
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Business, Supply Chain, Finance, Economics, or related field (or equivalent experience)
- 2-3 years of experience in pricing, revenue management, or analytics — freight/logistics/3PL experience strongly preferred
- Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, lookups, modeling); SQL or BI tool experience (Power BI/Tableau) an asset
- Familiarity with TMS platforms (McLeod, Trimble, MercuryGate, etc.) and freight market data sources (DAT, SONAR)
- Strong analytical and quantitative skills with high attention to detail
- Ability to translate data into clear pricing recommendations for non-technical stakeholders
- Strong communication skills to support cross-functional collaboration with Sales, Carrier Sourcing, and Finance
