What is a Chief Pricing Officer?
A Chief Pricing Officer is the executive accountable for pricing as a strategic, enterprise discipline. While the formal title is still rare, the role already exists — carried by leaders with:
​
-
20+ years of pricing and commercial leadership experience across industries and corporations.
-
Senior executive presence — capable of operating at board and C-suite level, influencing strategy and enterprise outcomes.
-
Cross-functional authority — bridging finance, sales, marketing, supply chain, and operations.
-
Accountability for results — ensuring pricing decisions translate directly into EBITDA impact, competitive advantage, and shareholder value.
These leaders have held top pricing roles under many titles — VP Pricing, Commercial Excellence, Revenue Management — but their mandate is the same: to own the most powerful lever of enterprise value.
Why It Matters
Most companies still treat pricing as a function of sales or finance. We believe pricing deserves a seat at the executive table — because it is the connective tissue between strategy, market dynamics, and shareholder value.
Our purpose is simple: to elevate and celebrate pricing leadership until every enterprise recognizes the role for what it is — essential.
