Strategic Pricing Consultant
Summary of Responsibilities
The Strategic Pricing Consultant serves as a revenue-driving pricing specialist responsible for executing customer pricing agreements while actively supporting new business growth. This role partners directly with franchise owners and carrier partners to identify opportunities, structure competitive pricing solutions, and help close strategic freight opportunities.

The Strategic Pricing Consultant applies established pricing logic and approved pricing programs while acting as a frontline advocate for growth, ensuring pricing decisions support both margin discipline and sales momentum.
Success in this role requires the ability to translate pricing into a compelling story. The Strategic Pricing Consultant must communicate value, inspire confidence, and influence decisions with both carriers and franchise partners.
