- Managing the end-to-end price rise process, ensuring subscribers transition smoothly to appropriate pricing tiers while maximising retention and revenue performance.
- Partnering closely with Insights and Analytics to identify revenue optimisation opportunities, using data and performance insights to inform strategic decision-making and improve customer outcomes.
- Supporting the delivery of subscriber upgrade and save strategies, leveraging the in-house dynamic offer recommendation tool to drive targeted and effective customer journeys.
- Collaborating with technical and operational teams to improve processes, enhance execution, and support the efficient delivery of commercial priorities.
- Supporting the Commercial Executive in refining briefing processes and coordinating day-to-day activity across the team.
