About The Position

The Senior International Pricing Analyst is a senior individual contributor responsible for pricing complex international air and ocean freight bids. The role partners directly with US sales leadership on bid strategy and with Operations Managers to keep P&L goals in balance – supporting aggressive growth without compromising business sustainability.

The selected candidate can operate from our offices in Grand Rapids, MI, Chicago, IL, or Mt. Ephraim, NJ.

• Working knowledge of US air and ocean freight markets, including major gateways (JFK, ORD, MIA, LAX, DFW, and others), intermodal considerations, surcharge mechanics, and operational constraints that shape pricing.
• Creative, artistic approach to solutions design – able to structure wins that standard rate sheets can't.
• Strong technology orientation, including advanced Excel (pivots, lookups, scenario modeling), Power BI, and practical use of AI tools to accelerate analysis and communication.
• Strong written and verbal communication; able to explain a pricing decision concisely to senior leaders, sales, and carrier partners.
• Self-directed; manages competing deadlines independently.
