Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity, assuming candidates have eligible working rights and a sufficient timezone overlap with their team. As our offices re-open, Atlassians can choose to work remotely or return to an office, unless it’s necessary for the role to be performed in the office. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

We’re looking for a Lead Designer to join our diverse and vibrant internal agency. As a lead designer on the Creative Team, accountability and ownership is just as meaningful as creativity. We value empowerment and, in this spirit, you’ll be responsible for your own projects as well as a strategic partner for our cross-functional teams across the marketing, buyer experience, and product design organizations. Working within the Atlassian Design Guidelines, you’ll dream up, design, and execute projects to deliver impact and delight across multiple touchpoints and all parts of the business. 

In this role, you will get to:

• Be the craft lead on a team of fearless production and cross-functional designers who focus on up-leveling creative that exists at the heart of the business across the entire company.
• Work on a tight-knit team, alongside product marketers, and buyer experience designers to scale business-critical design assets
• Design, partner, and execute web experiences, integrated campaigns, print pieces, event collateral, and everything in between by creating and using existing templates
• Push and challenge assumptions through productive debate, which ultimately leads to innovation and better outcomes.
• Sit on the Creative Leadership team and provide on-the-ground insight into how we can continue to build the team to further drive strategic and impactful design to support the business and our portfolio of brands. 

On the first day, we will expect you to have:

• A minimum of 12 years of professional experience, demonstrated with an exciting portfolio that showcases ambitious design and conceptual problem-solving
• A deep understanding and a proven aptitude for design principles, processes, and the strategy that underpins them
• A skillset that spans digital, brand, print, and campaign design
• Openness to receiving and soliciting feedback like a pro
• Strong visual and written communication skills
• A shared belief that collaboration improves creativity
• Experience in working with cross-functional partners in the marketing, buyer-experience, and experience design organizations, always with strategic goals in mind
• Confidence in presenting and articulating your work to both peers and partners
• The ability to design for different audiences and needs
• Attention to detail with a no-compromise attitude towards quality
• A background that involves proven experience working with design at-scale
• Expertise in Keynote, the Adobe Creative Suite, and Figma
