Pricing Analyst (Entry Level, Remote)

Job overview

Brightfield Lending Group is recruiting an entry-level, fully remote Pricing Analyst to support how the company researches, sets, and reviews prices. You will gather competitor pricing, keep pricing databases accurate, measure margin and profitability, and turn your findings into clear recommendations for leadership. The role suits analytically minded people who like working with numbers and want a practical start in pricing, revenue operations, or finance. Paid training is provided, so prior pricing, analyst, or finance experience is not required.

This is a pricing-focused role. A Financial Analyst typically covers a broader range of finance work such as budgeting and forecasting, and a Data Analyst typically works across many kinds of business data. A Pricing Analyst concentrates on three questions: what do we charge, what does it earn us, and how does that compare with the market?

What you’ll do

• Conduct competitor pricing research across products and services and record it in a consistent, verifiable format.
• Build and maintain pricing databases and spreadsheets that other teams can rely on.
• Analyze margin and profitability by product or customer segment.
• Prepare pricing recommendations for leadership, explaining the reasoning and the limits of the data.
• Support monthly and quarterly price reviews.
• Track price changes and their impact on sales.
• Prepare pricing reports and dashboards.
• Coordinate with sales, finance, and product teams to gather inputs and confirm details.
• Support promotional pricing scenarios by comparing the likely effect of different discount levels.
• Track discount patterns and approval workflows.
• Help maintain pricing policies and documentation.
• Support customer-specific pricing contracts.
• Monitor currency or regional pricing differences where relevant.

A typical pricing review cycle

Exact steps vary by team, but the work often follows a repeatable cycle:

For example, you might gather competitor prices ahead of a quarterly review, check them against your internal price list, and use a pivot table to see which segments have the weakest margins. You then summarize the findings, discuss them with sales and finance, and later track how any approved price change affected sales.

Tools you’ll use

Most of your day will be in Excel or Google Sheets, using functions such as VLOOKUP, pivot tables, and basic modeling. You will also build or update reports and dashboards, and Looker Studio or Tableau may be used depending on the team. You are not expected to write code, and you will not need SQL to begin; tool details should be confirmed during the interview.

Required qualifications

• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills.
• High school diploma or equivalent required; no certification required.
• Comfort with Excel or Google Sheets, including VLOOKUP, pivot tables, and basic modeling.
• Strong written English for reports and recommendations.
• Attention to detail for numbers and pricing accuracy.
• Comfort with BI tools such as Looker Studio or Tableau, or willingness to learn.
• Ability to work with multiple teams, including sales, finance, and product.
• Reliability with monthly reporting deadlines.
• Reliable internet connection and a quiet workspace.

Preferred qualifications

• Prior analyst, finance, or operations experience.
• Bachelor’s degree in economics, finance, statistics, or a related field (not required).
• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets skills.
• Familiarity with Tableau, Looker Studio, or Power BI.
• Basic understanding of SaaS or subscription pricing.
• Spanish/English bilingual ability.
• Interest in finance, economics, or business strategy.

Pay and benefits

Remote-work setup

You will need a reliable computer, stable internet access, and a quiet workspace for focused analysis and video or phone check-ins with colleagues. Access to spreadsheets, BI tools, and any assignment-specific systems should be confirmed during the hiring process. Do not purchase software or equipment on the assumption that reimbursement is guaranteed.

Application process

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a finance degree?

No. A high school diploma or equivalent is required. A bachelor’s degree in economics, finance, statistics, or a related field is preferred but not required, and no certifications are needed. Training covers pricing models, spreadsheets, and competitor analysis.

Do I need previous pricing or analyst experience?

No. Prior pricing, analyst, and finance experience are not required. Strong analytical skills, comfort with numbers, and solid spreadsheet ability are the main prerequisites.

What tools will I use?

Mainly Excel or Google Sheets, including VLOOKUP, pivot tables, and basic modeling. You may also work with BI tools such as Looker Studio or Tableau, which you can learn in training. The specific tools should be confirmed during the interview.

Do I need SQL or coding skills?

No coding is required to start, and SQL is not listed as a requirement. Strong spreadsheet skills are essential, though, so be ready to show you are comfortable with them.

Is this a data-heavy role?

It involves regular work with numbers, databases, and spreadsheets, but the focus is specifically on price, margin, discounts, and competitive positioning rather than broad data science or engineering. Clear written reports and teamwork with sales, finance, and product matter as much as the calculations.

How is this different from a Financial Analyst or Data Analyst role?

A Pricing Analyst focuses on price, margin, and competitive positioning. Financial and data analyst roles are typically broader in scope. Entry-level pricing work can be a stepping stone toward either, depending on your interests.

What is the pay range?

The stated range is $22–$32 per hour, based on experience and company size. Entry-level candidates typically start near the lower end. Some roles may offer bonuses tied to margin improvements or pricing accuracy; confirm bonus terms before accepting an offer.

What is the career path?

Relevant experience may support progression toward Senior Pricing Analyst, Pricing Manager, Revenue Operations Analyst, or Finance Manager. Advancement depends on performance, experience, and available opportunities.

Is the position fully remote, and who can apply?

The role is 100% remote and intended for candidates authorized to work in the United States. Confirm any assignment-specific eligibility and schedule requirements with the hiring team.

Does it cost anything to apply?

No. Applying through JobSphereHR is free. Do not pay a recruiter or supposed employer to secure the job.
