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.
About our team:
The Atlassian Marketplace is one of the largest B2B app stores globally and has exceeded $400 million in annual app sales this past year. Atlassian's Marketplace ecosystem is growing and so is our Marketplace Programs team! We work directly with our most strategic Marketplace app partners who help Atlassian deliver complete solutions for any team integrated with our products.
As customers evolve from on-premise to a cloud-first world, our applications and programs need to evolve as well. The Atlassian Marketplace Partner Program is designed to recognize and support developers who build apps and integrations that extend Atlassian product capabilities. Security, reliability and trust is top of mind for Atlassian customers of all sizes, and the Atlassian Partner Program allows us to ensure that customers have great experiences with their apps, and rewards partners (the brains behind their favorite apps!) who are most aligned with our objectives.
As the Marketplace Partner Program Manager for Atlassian's Marketplace Partner business, you'll be responsible for evolving the program that develops our community of Marketplace Partners, driving growth and velocity aligned to Atalssian's company objectives.
This is the perfect job for a Program Manager with experience managing, supporting and accelerating growth via technology partnerships. The ideal candidate has broad execution skills, knows how to roll up their sleeves, has a proven ability to work with global, cross-functional teams to drive successful programs across Product, Engineering, Design, Marketing, Sales, Operations, Analytics and Support.

• Experience building programs from scratch in a global software organization.
