Senior Manager, Program Management
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 an experienced Senior Manager to lead a growing team charged with delivering outcomes to Customer Support Services (CSS) in what we call our Business Essentials domain. The Business Essentials domain includes work on Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A), Risk and Compliance (R&C), initiatives aligned to broader Go-To-Market (GTM) efforts, plus others as dictated by business strategy.
This role combines breadth (varied problems to solve), depth (to ensure outcomes), people (scaling a team), and functional ownership (maturing the Business Essentials domain). If you're exhilarated by complex problem solving, motivated by scale, and passionate about growing people, then this is the role for you!
In this role your peer group will be Senior Managers leading other domains in the CSS portfolio. Your team will include Senior Program Managers. You'll partner heavily with an analytics team and development team to deliver cross-functional outcomes.
More about you
You're highly motivated to deliver business outcomes and can navigate a high-speed, high-complexity, matrixed environment. You know how to extract business requirements from senior leaders.
You understand where the business is going and proactively hire for the skills needed to solve tomorrow's problems. You create a culture of psychological safety and allow everyone on the team to bring their whole selves to work. You delegate work across the team to scale and provide opportunities, but balance it with verification and keep outcomes on track.
You're a life-long learner. You continually develop your own skills and can get up to speed quickly in any new area of the business. You have a growth mentality and develop this approach in your team.
You maintain positivity for yourself and your team, even in the face of adversity and setbacks. Failures are opportunities to learn and build resilience.
You are accountable for:
- Establishing a highly effective process to gather and prioritize problem statements from across the business
- Getting commitment from senior stakeholders on the collective priorities, scope, and goals for the portfolio of work
- Ensuring that the initiatives and programs deliver the outcome needed by the business
- Mitigating risk and manage dependencies for the forward rolling four quarters
- Scaling the business essentials domain to meet future needs of CSS
On your first day we'll expect you to have:
- 7+ years delivering successful transformations affecting large, complex, customer-facing systems, processes, and people
- Experience leading a distributed team
- Demonstrable ability to drive a cross-functional team to execute against a strategy
- Exceptional behavioral assessment capability and a record of hiring "A" players
