About Boughtnex

Boughtnex Group is a Singapore-based e-commerce holding company operating across Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand. We manage 20,000+ SKUs across Shopee, Lazada, TikTok Shop, and Shopify, with a portfolio of brands including PowerPets, VitaminBar, and Mello.

We are looking for a Pricing Analyst who can help protect our margins, catch pricing errors before they become costly, and identify opportunities to improve profitability. This role requires strong attention to detail, solid spreadsheet skills, marketplace knowledge, and the ability to spot problems before anyone else does.

The Role

As our Pricing Analyst, you will be responsible for reviewing pricing, monitoring margins, analyzing competitor movements, and ensuring that campaign and flash deal prices remain profitable.

You will own four core functions:

1. Negative Margin Alerts & Root Cause Analysis

When an order loses money, your job is to identify why it happened and recommend the correct fix.

Responsibilities:

• Monitor daily order reports for negative-margin transactions across all platforms and countries

• Investigate each case and identify the root cause, such as:

• Wrong COGS or costing error

• Incorrect selling price

• MOQ issue or buying too few units

• Shipping method or courier issue

• Platform fee, voucher, or subsidy impact

• Categorize every negative-margin order by root cause

• Report weekly trends and recurring issues

• Escalate margin leaks to the operations team with clear and specific recommendations

• Track whether fixes were implemented and verify if the issue was resolved

2. Competitor Pricing Analysis

You will monitor competitor pricing and help the company decide when to adjust, hold, or improve pricing.

Responsibilities:

• Monitor competitor prices for key SKUs across Shopee, Lazada, and TikTok Shop in Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand

• Track pricing changes for the top 100 SKUs at least weekly

• Flag opportunities when competitors raise prices, so we can improve margin without losing sales

• Flag threats when competitors drop prices and recommend whether to match, hold, or differentiate

• Maintain a competitor pricing tracker in Google Sheets

• Analyze pricing patterns before, during, and after major sales events such as 6.6, 7.7, 9.9, 11.11, and 12.12

3. Campaign Price Review

Before campaign prices are submitted to Shopee, Lazada, or TikTok Shop, you will review whether the pricing still makes financial sense.

Responsibilities:

• Review campaign prices for mega sales, thematic campaigns, and brand campaigns before submission

• Check whether campaign prices still meet the minimum acceptable margin after:

• Platform fees

• Commission

• Vouchers

• Shipping subsidies

• Discounts

• Flag any campaign price that may result in a loss or margin below the required threshold

• Provide a clear go/no-go recommendation for every campaign price submission

• Build and maintain a campaign pricing checklist for the team to use before every submission

4. Flash Deal Price Review

You will apply the same level of pricing control to flash deals and limited-time promotions.

Responsibilities:

• Review all flash deal nominations before submission, including price, quantity, and timing

• Calculate the effective margin after flash deal discounts, platform commission, and stacked vouchers

• Flag any deal where the discount makes the unit economics negative

• Recommend the lowest profitable price for each flash deal

• Track flash deal performance and assess whether the sales volume justified the margin reduction

Requirements

• At least 2 years of experience in e-commerce, pricing, marketplace operations, or data analysis

• Strong Excel or Google Sheets skills, including pivot tables, VLOOKUP/INDEX-MATCH, formulas, and conditional formatting

• Experience with Southeast Asian marketplaces such as Shopee, Lazada, or TikTok Shop

• Understanding of platform fees, commission structures, campaign mechanics, vouchers, and discounts

• Comfortable working with large datasets such as order reports, SKU-level data, pricing databases, and margin reports

• Highly detail-oriented and systematic — able to catch one wrong number in a 10,000-row spreadsheet

• Strong written English for clear reports, summaries, and escalations

• Self-motivated and proactive — you do not wait for someone to tell you there is a problem

• Reliable internet connection

• Available to work 48 hours per week, flexible within 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM SGT, Monday to Saturday

• Comfortable working with Telegram, Google Drive, and Google Sheets

Nice to Have

• Experience with BigQuery, SQL, or any data querying tool

• Background in finance, accounting, commercial analysis, or business analytics

• Experience working with multi-country e-commerce operations

• Familiarity with Shopee Seller Centre, Lazada Seller Center, and TikTok Shop Seller Center

• Experience using repricing tools or competitor monitoring software

• Understanding of shipping cost structures and courier pricing across Southeast Asia

Compensation & Benefits

• Fixed monthly salary of ₱30,000 – ₱40,000

• 48 hours per week, flexible schedule

• 30-day trial period

• Performance bonuses tied to margin improvement targets

• Long-term role with growth potential into commercial and pricing strategy

How to Apply

Please send us the following:

• A short introduction about your relevant experience, around 2–3 sentences

• An example of a time you caught a pricing or costing error that saved money

• What was the error?

• How did you find it?

• What was the impact?

• Your Excel or Google Sheets proficiency level: beginner, intermediate, or advanced

• Your availability: hours per day and days per week

No cover letter needed. We want to see how you think in numbers.
