Senior Sales Strategy & Operations Analyst
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.
Job description
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 a 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 proactively engage with our customers through targeted outbound engagements that will lead to higher conversions and incremental bookings throughout the Customer lifecycle.
Atlassian recently entered the ITOPS / ITSM space, and has been growing that business quickly. As we continue to scale up our enterprise offerings, we are looking for a senior analyst to help drive operational rigor and set the strategic vision for the ITSM sales business. This position will play a central role in driving the overall Atlassian GTM strategy around our IT offerings as well as provide some dotted line support for Atlassian’s mid-market sales business across all solutions. This senior sales operations analyst role will also play a role in driving operational rigor and setting the strategic vision for the SMB sales business.
In this role, you'll get to:
- Contribute to Atlassian’s annual planning and segmentation models, including owning the SMB go-to-market planning efforts.
- Develop in-depth and automated reporting around sales metrics for Atlassian’s SMB and ITSM businesses. Analyze the health of our funnel from lead to won deal and identify/unblock the bottlenecks.
- Assist in the creation of territories and lead routing rules to ensure each salesperson has an adequate patch to work and performance risks are identified and remedied early.
- Provide executive business insights and develop reporting to arm the sales team with the best possible story to tell our prospects.
- Partner with cross-functional teams including our process and systems, enablement, and product marketing organizations to minimize new sales hire ramp and maximize deal efficiency.
On your first day, we'll expect you to have:
- 6+ years of experience in business strategy, finance, analytics, consulting, OR 4+ in sales strategy, operations, or analytics
- Expert level Excel skills, you can build a model that represents any business motion
- Proficiency with SQL, you can join any data sources you need together
- Ability to structure complex problems, derive insights from data, and articulate clearly with diverse teams up to the senior leadership level
- Proactive engagement with the management team to identify, prioritize, develop, and execute a quarterly sales strategy plan
- Strong presentation skills and ability to influence varying org functions at varying levels of seniority throughout the org; basically you can execute as well as recommend.
