Lead Pricing & Events Analyst
Location: Chancery Lane (EC4Y 0HA), hybrid working 3 days in the office, 2 days working from home/another location
Function: Pricing & Events (Commercial)
Salary: £55,000 - £60,000 dependant on skills and experiences + up to 20% bonus + health + up to 10% matched pension + bens
Duration: Fixed Term Contract until 31/8/27
We have approximately 200,000 guests stay at our hotels each week.
Are you a commercially minded analyst who thrives on turning data into decisions that drive real business performance? At Whitbread, home of Premier Inn, we're looking for a Lead Pricing & Events Analyst to play a pivotal role in shaping the pricing strategy across our UK and Germany hotel estate.
This is far more than a reporting role. You will be at the heart of our commercial decision-making, using insight, analytics and market intelligence to optimise pricing, maximise occupancy and influence revenue performance across hundreds of hotels. You will also identify opportunities, challenge assumptions and help ensure our pricing strategies deliver the right outcomes for both our customers and the business.
Working as the senior specialist within the Pricing & Events team, you will take ownership of pricing governance, support major trading decisions and help steer priorities across a fast-paced commercial environment. While this isn't a people management position, you'll act as the deputy to the Pricing & Events Manager, providing guidance, coordinating workloads and helping the team deliver against key business priorities.
What makes this role particularly exciting is the opportunity to influence how we trade at scale. You will work closely with stakeholders across Commercial, Marketing, Data Science and Technology, helping to shape new pricing approaches, improve processes, enhance automation and support the evolution of our revenue management capabilities.
We are looking for someone with a strong analytical background, excellent data literacy and past experience of using tools such as Power BI and Databricks to uncover insights and drive action. You will be confident managing competing priorities, making informed judgement calls, influencing stakeholders and promoting best practice across a high-performing team.
If you are passionate about data, commercial strategy and using insight to make a visible impact, this is an opportunity to take on a highly influential role where your expertise will directly contribute to the continued success of one of the UK's leading hospitality brands.
Skills and Experiences Required:
- With proven analytical capability combined with strong interpersonal skills, the Lead Pricing & Events Analyst will deliver and communicate complex performance insights to multiple stakeholders.
- Advanced Excel and strong PowerBI & Databricks data manipulation skills with strong presentation capability.
- Identifying trends and turning insight into action plans.
- A good communicator, with a proven ability to manage their own workload and time effectively, with flexibility to balance the priorities and changing needs of multiple stakeholders.
We’re proud to be a Top Employer for 14 consecutive years, a top apprenticeship employer, #10 in the Stonewall Workplace Equality Index, and a Top 25 Exemplary Employer in the Investing in Ethnicity Parliamentary Matrix.
