What you’ll do

Vodafone Business Group is undergoing significant commercial transformation amidst an evolving Group portfolio of OpCos and Partner Markets (B2T). It is looking to provide greater cost transparency and a simplified commercial model to OpCos, whilst also identifying further monetisation opportunities from B2T.

• Conduct price and feature benchmarking of key services versus the external market;
• Create ‘bundles’ of services that best meet the market opportunity;
• Establish pricing principles for each bundle, including what the pricing unit should be, and the value, based on the demand and benchmarking exercises;
• Understand the variability of cost for each service, and make recommendations as to how VB Commercial might scale its offer to B2T – i.e. what an incentive model must look like;
• Work closely with B2T and Finance teams to establish principles around commercial.

Who you are
