At Kelley Drye, we understand Strategic Pricing is more than just spreadsheets - our team applies a Legal Operations mindset to drive value across not only Pricing and Budgeting, but Analytics, Sales, Marketing, Project Management, and more.

The Strategic Pricing Team is in a unique position where we work cross-functionally with each Firm department and practice area, giving us an unparalleled view into Firm operations and financial performance. In addition to having oversight of pricing operations, the team is also responsible for driving the data and analytics strategy across the Firm, establishing both the "look-and-feel" of our reports and front-end user experience design. If the ability to see and feel the impact your own work is having on the wider organization is important, this is the role for you.

This position will have a high degree of exposure with Firm Partners and executive committee members, and collaborates closely with the Director of Strategic Pricing and the team’s other analysts. The Strategic Pricing Technical Analyst will play a core role in advancing and developing our quickly expanding analytics program, utilizing their strong experience with Power BI, DAX, and SQL to interact and visualize our extensive dataset. They’ll be vital to delivering unparalleled data transparency, insights, and front-end user experience to partners and clients alike.

The Strategic Pricing Technical Analyst will also be an essential player in mapping and understanding how to create a cohesive data ecosystem from multiple disparate sources, by collaborating directly with Accounting, Finance, Human Resources, and Marketing to ensure data is not only available, but consistent across the Firm. Further, they’ll need to have a passion and aptitude toward not only making data available but presenting it in such a way where it’s attractive to look at, intuitive to use, and easily understood across all levels of financial fluency.
