Your Opportunity at ARC’TERYX:
As the Senior Merchant 2 - Global Pricing, you will act as a driving force behind Arc’teryx’s Global Pricing Project – a cross-functional, executive-sponsored initiative to evolve how we set, govern, and execute pricing across our franchises, channels, and regions. Reporting to the SVP, Regional Merchandising, you help keep this high-stakes program on track, turning complex commercial questions into clear, well-supported recommendations that leadership can act on with confidence.
This role owns the execution and ongoing discipline focused on tracking, governance, and establishing the guidelines that keep pricing consistent over time. You help manage key gates and deliverables, coordinate work across multiple workstreams and teams, and prepare content for the steering committee and other key forums. You combine sharp analytical and critical-thinking skills with the program-management discipline to keep a complex, cross-functional initiative on track and well-governed.
This role is based out of our North Vancouver office and is open to hybrid work. Candidates must be eligible to work in Canada.
Meet Your Future Team:
The Regional Merchandising team is responsible for delivering regional, seasonal product assortments that support the overall global product direction and regional business achievement. In partnership with the Product Line Management (PLM) team, Merchants drive company sales, gross margin, and inventory productivity goals, in both our wholesale and vertical channels. This team translates market and consumer insights into actionable product strategies, ensuring both global consistency and regional relevance.
Global pricing is a priority initiative within the function, bringing together cross-functional teams across the business to set a consistent, defensible global pricing strategy. We translate complex, ambiguous commercial problems into clear frameworks, data-driven recommendations, and executive decisions – connecting pricing to margin, volume, and brand positioning. This is a new role that will enable our global pricing initiatives to mature into a function centered on tracking, governance, guidelines, and continuous refinement.
If you were the Senior Merchant 2 - Global Pricing now, here are some of the core activities you would be:
Tracking progress against the project roadmap and key milestones, surfacing risks and dependencies early, and holding workstream owners accountable to timelines and quality
Helping establish and maintain pricing governance, guidelines, and operating standards, and monitoring pricing decisions are applied consistently across franchises, channels, and regions
Preparing content and recommendations for the Steering Committee and other key forums ensuring decisions are well-framed and easy to act on
Managing key gates and deliverables, and translating rough inputs: discussions, models, draft analyses into cohesive, decision-ready materials
Partnering with Merchandising, Finance, Commercial and Regional teams, Product, Planning, and Operations to align pricing strategy, assumptions, and execution
Coordinating inputs across workstreams, resolving open questions, and ensuring consistency in how pricing decisions are represented across teams and regions
Providing market insights on key regions, particularly China, to help shape pricing decisions by incorporating consumer behaviour, product demand, and competitive dynamics into the global pricing framework.
Serving as a trusted thought partner to the SVP, Merchandising and other senior leaders and helping structure problems, frame trade-offs, and drive alignment
Acting as a connective layer between analytical teams and decision-makers, ensuring the right people have the right information at the right time
Performing additional analysis using internal data (pricing, margin, elasticity, sell-through) and external sources (market, competitor, and macro pricing benchmarks) to pressure-test and strengthen recommendations
Building and refining models and frameworks: elasticity-adjusted volume, margin impact, scenario analysis – that make pricing trade-offs easy to understand and evaluate
Applying strong critical thinking and judgment to synthesize complex, sometimes ambiguous information into clear, actionable recommendations
Here are some of the things you could be working on in the future:
Helping shape the long-term global pricing strategy and operating model, including governance, tools, and ways of working
Leading discrete workstreams or pricing initiatives end-to-end as the program scales across regions and franchises
Partnering with senior leaders on broader merchandising and commercial strategy questions beyond pricing
