Role Snapshot
Director of Pricing at KEV Group will own the end-to-end pricing strategy for a high-growth fintech platform serving 27,000+ schools across North America. This newly elevated function involves building pricing capability from the ground up—frameworks, tooling, and governance—while translating market intelligence and cost structures into competitive, sustainable pricing models.
Job Description
Who We Are
At KEV, we help school districts eliminate the school finance blind spot. Our platform gives district finance teams real-time visibility and traceability into every dollar collected at the school level - whether it's cash, cheque, or digital. From field trips to fundraisers, we help them manage every dollar with confidence. More than 27,000 schools across North America trust KEV to manage over $8 billion annually. By unifying payments, accounting, and reporting, KEV simplifies life for bookkeepers, builds trust with parents, and gives finance leaders the oversight their current systems cannot. It's how we help schools stay compliant, reduce risk, and focus on what matters most, student success.
Backed by Five Arrows, the PE arm of Rothschild & Co., KEV is investing more than ever to support K-12 in a world of tighter budgets, rising scrutiny, and fast-changing tech. We're headquartered in Toronto, with offices across North America.
If you're excited by the idea of building tech that protects schools, empowers finance teams, and improves education through better systems, KEV is the place for you.
This role is for an active vacancy.
About the Role
Pricing at a high-growth fintech is a lever - not an afterthought. As our Director of Pricing, you'll own the strategy that determines how KEV captures value from the platform we've spent years building. Reporting to the SVP, Marketing, you'll sit at the intersection of finance, product, sales, and customer success, translating market intelligence, cost structures, and deal data into pricing models that are both competitive and sustainable.
This is a newly elevated function. You'll build the pricing capability from the ground up - frameworks, tooling, governance, and a feedback loop that keeps us sharp as we scale. If you've turned pricing chaos into pricing clarity at a SaaS or fintech company, and you're energized by the mission of making student funds safer, this is your role.
The base salary range for this role is 160,000-180,000 CAD. This range reflects expected compensation at the time of posting. Final offers may vary based on skills, experience, location, and internal equity. Total compensation may also include bonus and benefits.
How You'll Contribute
- Design and own KEV's end-to-end pricing strategy - including subscription tiers, transaction fee structures, packaging architecture, and discount governance
- Build and maintain financial models that quantify the revenue, margin, and churn impact of pricing decisions across customer segments
- Partner with Product to price new modules and features at launch; ensure pricing supports adoption without leaving revenue on the table
- Lead win/loss and competitive pricing analysis; synthesize findings into quarterly pricing reviews with executive stakeholders
- Develop and manage a pricing governance process that balances speed-to-deal with margin discipline
- Lead contract renewal strategy in partnership with Customer Success - identifying at-risk accounts, upsell pricing windows, and cohort-level trends
- Build reporting dashboards that give leadership real-time visibility into price realization, discounting patterns, and ARR contribution by tier
Who You Are
- 7+ years in pricing strategy, revenue management, or FP&A with at least 3 years in a SaaS, fintech, or subscription-based business
- Proven ability to build pricing models from scratch - not just refine what's already there
- You are able to use data backed insights to develop compelling pricing recommendations and convince various levels of management of your arguements
- Expert-level Excel or Google Sheets modelling; experience with BI tools (Looker, Tableau, or equivalent); comfort with CPQ or deal desk tooling
- Experience presenting pricing strategy to C-suite or Board-level audiences and driving alignment across Sales, Finance, and Product
- You operate with precision and earn trust through data - but you can also read a room and know when the right answer is a conversation, not a spreadsheet
