You will apply hands-on knowledge of tariff pricing, markdown optimization, and competitive analysis to craft training questions and assess model answers.

Who Should Apply
The ideal candidate has spent five or more years in retail category management or buying and can point to specific work in tariff pricing, markdown optimization, or promotional campaign planning. You write with precision and can explain pricing decisions in clear, structured language. This project suits someone who wants flexible, remote evaluation work alongside a current job. The role is a poor fit for anyone seeking live category ownership, team-based buying, or a guaranteed weekly schedule. Candidates often score low when they describe general merchandising duties without naming concrete pricing or markdown projects, or when they treat the task as simple data entry instead of expert review.
Salary Insight
The listing states $80.00 per hour. That rate matches the senior level expected from a category manager with five or more years in retail buying. No other compensation details appear in the source, so confirm payment schedule and project duration when you apply.
