Pricing Analyst- Bilingual

Our client, is seeking a highly analytical and fluent Bilingual Pricing Analyst for an initial 6-month contract with a strong possibility of extension up to one year. This role was created due to exciting internal movement and growth within the finance and sales operations teams.

The Bilingual Pricing Analyst sits at the intersection of commercial sales, logistics finance, and broker management. Rather than dealing with end-consumer accounts, this position focuses heavily on business-to-business support for third-party distributors and agents.

The core function of this role is the rigorous validation of customer marketing agreement rebates and claims, ensuring financial accuracy across electronic funds transfer (EFT) payments. You will manage the administration of promotional pricing tools, track budgets against actual spend, and serve as the main, French-speaking point of contact for regional third-parties.

Advantages
Long-Term Potential: Initial 6-month contract with strong, written visibility into a 12-month extension or longer based on performance.

Modern Hybrid Structure: Enjoy the flexibility of working from home 4 days a week, with just one structured anchor day (Tuesday) in a highly collaborative, central downtown office space for team networking.

Rebate & Claim Validation (80% - 90% of Core Workload): Monitor, validate, and process customer marketing agreement (CMA) rebate programs for each account, assessing accrual rates, product packages, and volumes. Identify and call out exceptions such as over, under, or missed claims.

Pricing & Contract Administration: Manage and submit annual and promotional pricing contracts into the proprietary commercial system on behalf of the sales team.

Agent Communication & Support: Serve as the primary liaison to third-party agents and brokers, communicating all annual and promotional pricing updates seamlessly in French.

Reporting & Budget Management: Produce comprehensive monthly reports for the sales team to track commercial spend against budget expectations. Identify, analyze, and call out financial risks and opportunities.

Financial Processing: Manage customer payment processing via cheque and electronic funds transfer (EFT). Accurately assess claims against established accruals.

Qualifications

Bilingualism: Absolute fluency in both French and English (written and verbal) is required to manage Quebec-based broker communications. (Language skills will be assessed during the interview process).

Technical Toolkit: Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel (including pivot tables, VLOOKUPs, and complex formulas) is mandatory. Ability to navigate and run data queries within Microsoft Access databases is highly preferred. Macros is a definite plus!

Experience: Strong background in pricing analysis, commercial finance, or rebate auditing, ideally within a fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), logistics, or manufacturing environment.

Analytical Mindset: Exceptional eye for detail with a proven track record of finding data discrepancies, manual errors, or margin exceptions in large financial datasets.

Communication & Partnership: Strong stakeholder management skills; comfortable partnering with internal sales leadership and external logistics agents.

Summary
Operating on a hybrid model (one anchor day in the downtown Toronto office on Tuesdays), this role is the financial backbone for regional commercial operations. You will act as the dedicated partner for third-party brokers and delivery service agents based in Quebec, managing complex promotional pricing contracts, customer marketing agreement (CMA) rebates, and spend validation.
