Description

Description The Commercial Manager exists to equip Blue Heron’s Revenue organization with the market intelligence, pricing insight, and analytical direction required to make stronger strategic decisions across product, community planning, positioning, and go-to-market execution. This role transforms fragmented operational and market data into actionable commercial insight. Working at the intersection of Revenue Operations, Land Acquisition, Architecture & Interior Design, Finance, Sales, and Marketing, the Commercial Manager helps Blue Heron understand what buyers want, where demand is shifting, how communities should be positioned, and how pricing strategy should evolve in a dynamic luxury housing market. This is not an operational reporting or CRM administration role. It is a strategic commercial intelligence role responsible for helping leadership make better product, pricing, and market decisions within a relationship-driven, high-touch luxury residential environment. Core Accountabilities Product & Community Intelligence Evaluating performance across product lines, communities, floorplans, and buyer segments to identify patterns in demand, buyer behavior, and product-market fit. Monitoring market trends, design preferences, pricing elasticity, and evolving buyer expectations to inform future product and community strategy. Synthesizing first-party and third-party research into actionable recommendations for product mix, land prioritization, and community planning. Applying AI-assisted analytical tools, predictive modeling, and emerging intelligence platforms to accelerate insight generation and improve decision quality. Pricing & Positioning Owning Blue Heron’s pricing intelligence framework across communities, product lines, and inventory releases. Tracking price-per-square-foot trends, competitive positioning, absorption sensitivity, and demand indicators to guide pricing recommendations. Developing pricing strategies for new releases, inventory adjustments, and phase launches that balance market realities with margin expectations. Supporting commercialization of architectural options and upgrades through take-rate analysis, bundling strategy, margin modeling, and buyer positioning. Defining and articulating the positioning narrative for each community — including target buyer profile, competitive differentiation, and pricing strategy. Partnering with Land, Finance, and Revenue Leadership to ensure early-stage pricing and go-to-market assumptions align with both demand signals and financial objectives. Competitive Intelligence & Market Analysis Leading the ongoing competitive intelligence program across Blue Heron’s active and target markets. Monitoring competitor communities, pricing strategy, product offerings, sales velocity, and market positioning. Supporting regional expansion analysis by evaluating emerging markets, demand indicators, competitive dynamics, and product-market fit. Integrating MLS data, permit activity, economic indicators, and internal pipeline data into a continuous view of market conditions and Blue Heron’s competitive position. Delivering executive-level market summaries, strategic briefs, and competitive analyses to Revenue leadership. Identifying emerging demand gaps and product opportunities ahead of market movement. Reporting & Business Intelligence Building and maintaining the commercial intelligence layer for the Revenue organization. Establishing a consistent cadence of executive-ready reporting, including weekly market pulse updates, monthly community scorecards, and quarterly strategic briefs. Developing scenario models, forecasting analyses, and strategic narratives that support leadership decision-making. Continuously improving the speed, depth, and quality of insight delivery through evolving BI and AI capabilities. Ensuring leadership has a trusted, always-current view of market conditions, product performance, and commercial trends without needing to request ad hoc analysis. What Success Looks Like Success in this role means Blue Heron operates with a clearer, more proactive understanding of buyer demand, market conditions, pricing strategy, and competitive positioning. The Commercial Manager succeeds when: Revenue discussions become insight-driven rather than anecdotal. Product strategy and community planning align more consistently with market demand and buyer expectations. New communities launch with stronger product-market fit and pricing confidence. Early warning signs around pricing friction, shifting buyer behavior, or market softening are identified before they materially impact performance. Revenue leadership is equipped with trusted, executive-ready intelligence that supports faster and better decision-making. The Director of Revenue Operations & Analytics is able to operate at a more strategic level because the analytical and intelligence layer is consistently covered. The partnership between Commercial Intelligence and Revenue Operations creates a seamless loop between operational data collection and strategic interpretation.

The Commercial Manager provides leadership with the insight required to make stronger decisions earlier — reducing reliance on assumptions, aligning teams around market realities, and improving the quality of strategic conversations across the organization. This role serves as a trusted analytical partner across departments, helping teams understand not just what the data says, but what it means for product strategy, pricing, positioning, and long-term growth. How Performance Is Measured Performance is measured through: Accuracy, clarity, and usefulness of commercial insights and recommendations. Strength of pricing recommendations and alignment between pricing strategy and market performance. Quality and adoption of executive reporting, scorecards, and strategic briefs. Ability to identify emerging market risks and opportunities ahead of competitors. Contribution to stronger product-market alignment across communities and offerings.

Connects insight to commercial action and enterprise decision-making. Thinks systemically across Revenue, Land, Design, Finance, and Marketing functions. Maintains awareness of downstream implications when evaluating pricing, positioning, or product strategy decisions. Operates comfortably in long-cycle, relationship-driven luxury sales environments. Communication & Leadership Communicates complex findings clearly, concisely, and persuasively to executive audiences. Leads through influence, credibility, and analytical rigor rather than positional authority. Navigates competing priorities and aligns conversations around objective market intelligence. Builds collaborative relationships across departments while maintaining independent analytical judgment. Creates clarity in ambiguous or evolving market conditions. Character & Professionalism Deep intellectual curiosity combined with disciplined analytical structure. Calm, thoughtful, and solutions-oriented under pressure. Highly accountable with strong ownership mentality. Interested in generating useful action, not simply producing output. Appreciates Blue Heron’s design-led product philosophy and luxury buyer experience. Approaches emerging technology and AI as tools for better decision-making, not novelty. How This Role Shows Up (Blue Heron Expectations) The Commercial Manager shows up as a strategic thought partner who brings clarity, objectivity, and commercial discipline to complex decisions. This role leads from the center of the organization — translating data into direction, helping leadership identify opportunity earlier, and ensuring product, pricing, and market decisions are grounded in insight rather than assumption. At Blue Heron, this role is expected to be highly collaborative, analytically rigorous, commercially aware, and enterprise-minded. The Commercial Manager earns trust through preparation, precision, judgment, and the consistent ability to help others make smarter decisions faster.
