Head of Pricing & Monetisation

About the team

Pricing and monetisation sits at the centre of SumUp's commercial engine, shaping how millions of small businesses choose and buy our products, and how we capture value from every product we build. This is a rare opportunity to build senior ownership of pricing to design the operating model, governance and tooling that turn pricing into a repeatable engine for revenue and margin, with a fast route from insight to decision to impact. Working shoulder to shoulder with Product, Finance, Sales and Engineering, this person will have the space to define the team, the strategy and the way pricing decisions get made across the business.

What you'll do

• Set a company wide pricing and monetisation strategy, translating commercial priorities into a clear, prioritised roadmap with measurable outcomes attached

• Own or facilitate pricing decisions across merchant pricing, payment processing economics and packaging, working within agreed decision rights

• Establish pricing governance, decision rights and escalation paths, creating consistent ways of working across Commercial, Product, Finance, Sales and Engineering

• Use data, customer insight, financial analysis and experimentation to identify and prioritise the pricing opportunities with the biggest commercial impact

• Improve how pricing changes move from decision to implementation and measurement, closing gaps and removing bottlenecks along the way

• Shape pricing data, tooling and experimentation capabilities so teams across the business can make repeatable, evidence-led decisions

• Build trusted relationships with executive leadership and senior stakeholders across Product, Finance, Sales, Commercial and Engineering

You'll be great for this role if…

• Extensive senior experience leading pricing, monetisation or commercial strategy in a B2B, fintech, payments, marketplace or platform business, with real accountability for outcomes

• Strong understanding of packaging and monetisation, with experience defining how products, features and pricing work together to drive adoption, upsell, and customer value growth.

• Strong track record connecting pricing decisions to revenue, gross margin, contribution margin or other measurable commercial outcomes across products or markets

• Comfort working with imperfect or fragmented data, building clear value hypotheses and moving from analysis into decisions and measurable execution

• Experience setting pricing strategy, governance and decision rights across multiple stakeholder groups, including building, leading or significantly developing a pricing or monetisation team

• Confident, clear communication style with the ability to influence Product, Finance, Sales, Commercial and Engineering stakeholders, especially when pricing authority is shared across functions
