Senior Manager - Sales Strategy and Operations
Atlassian
Job Summary
At Atlassian, we are on a mission to reinvent B2B selling. We know that classic high-pressure B2B sales tactics don't work anymore. We have built a billion dollar, fast-growing business without any of those tactics, based on high-quality products, free trials and an intense focus on customer satisfaction. Those happy Customers convert to paying Customers, creating a prolific "Flywheel" that has delivered 150,000+ customers to date. We believe that there is an opportunity to more pro-actively engage with our customers through targeted, value-added outbound engagements that will lead to higher conversions and incremental bookings throughout the Customer lifecycle.
Atlassian has been on an evolution over the last year and a half to strengthen our solution and platform offerings beyond point products. That evolution has come with a new slate of strategic OKR goals and initiatives to measure success selling to new user personas, cross-functional customer groups, and more. Atlassian has also been on a transformative company-wide mission to standardize business definitions, processes, and rituals across enterprise GTM, finance, and R&D.
The team needs an experienced, ultra-collaborative leader to drive that alignment on business definitions and processes across multiple functional units. This leader will also be at the forefront of how enterprise GTM sets and manages OKRs that go up to our C-Suite.

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable, explainable, and competitive compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline.

For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:
Zone A: $176,100 - $234,800
