Support the weekly Price Monitoring function (PM) within Fancensus:
- Work with the Commercial & Insights Manager and Development team to learn and understand the entire PM technical process supplemented by training where required.
Work with the Commercial & Insights Manager in documenting the PM process within the Knowledge Base to include:

Work with the Commercial Insights Manager on developing and improving the weekly cadence of data validation checks that are carried out within PM. Ensure these solutions are focused on Fusion and not reliant on the use of Excel / Google Docs. For example:

- Prices that are incorrect; too high / too low

- Ensure all key titles have no missing URLs by checking against Discoverability URLs and using release schedule
- Ensure all key titles have data checked for all dates, and make sure logged prices are up to date at least once per week for manual stores
- The data validation process should also encompass PM customers and new / upcoming AAA / A titles reviewed on a weekly basis.
Identify the top retail sites returning the highest frequency of manual entries and work with the Commercial Insights Manager and the Development team to improve these. We are aiming for a 95% 1st time success rate on a consistent basis:
- Broken pricing links to be fixed within 3 days
- Broken retailer rulesets to be fixed within 1 week
- Manual entry workarounds attempted to be resolved within 2 weeks and raised to Development if not possible.
- Work with Technical Operations Officer to ensure all new retailer issues are logged, including those that are fixed on the spot.
- Ensure pricing exists for all new releases titles.
