Atlassian is continuing to hire with all interviewing and on-boarding done virtually due to COVID-19. All new and existing Atlassians will continue to work from home until it’s safe to return to our offices. When our offices re-open, we will provide the choice to work from home or return to work in an office unless a job requirement makes it necessary for a particular role to be performed at an Atlassian office.


Atlassian is hiring a finance leader to support the Global Operations team (R&D, AWS and G&A). You will lead a FP&A team responsible for executing the operational strategy of Atlassian. You will play a key role in planning, providing insight into business performance, supporting strategic decision-making and helping predict the future of the business. This is a highly visible role in the organization with close partnership with senior business leaders across the company.

In this role, you will report to the Head of FP&A and will lead a high-performing distributed team. You will lead the preparation of accurate short / long range forecasts and will mentor a fantastic team that already works across our organization to drive strategic thinking about the growth of our business. You will provide thought leadership to our CFO, our Founders and the Executive Team.


More about you


We are seeking a dynamic senior finance leader to help shape and drive the vision of one of the fastest growing companies in the market. With a passion to understand the bigger picture and think strategically, you also enjoy rolling up your sleeves and diving into intricate analyses, while also stepping back to develop a perspective on the business and drive outcomes. You thrive in a fast pace environment, look to solve challenging problems and are motivated to implement innovative ways to do things better.

You are a natural leader, with a “get it done” attitude. You draw people to you with your energy and curiosity. You work hard, but don’t take yourself too seriously. You can build credibility with your knowledge of both detail and big themes and communicate effectively with Executives, driving insight and action.


In this role, you'll get to:

  • Lead a large portion of the Atlassian operating forecast. From AWS hosting to supporting the R&D product roadmap to hiring velocity or even the long-term real estate strategy, you will be the go-to person for the executive team on explaining how the company is executing against its operating strategy.
  • Compose the current and long-term operating narrative for internal and external partners.
  • Partner with the corporate finance team to drive the annual planning cycle and execute on the strategic vision for the upcoming year.
  • Identify investment opportunities and focus areas that propel Atlassian’s continued growth.
  • Provide data driven insights into business performance, supporting strategic decision-making
  • Lead a high functioning, distributed team of FP&A talent.


  • On your first day, we'll expect you to have:

Qualitative:

  • Possess a strong work ethic and are high energy
  • Are innovative, decisive, and willing to challenge the status quo
  • Are able to encourage a team to deliver outstanding results
  • Are a cross-team collaborator, able to effectively work with teams across multiple departments, time zones, and functions
  • Have a consistent record of motivating change while still being collaborative and inclusive in nature
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills to explain complex financial to Executives
  • Are a strategic problem solver, especially when navigating ambiguity, hands-on and resourceful
  • Are adaptable and handle contending responsibilities in a timely manner

Quantitative:

  • Experience in leading and developing high caliber teams
  • Experience in orchestrating and executing an annual planning cycle. Previous experience running a planning cycle at a public company is highly desired
  • Deep understanding of financial modeling and key metrics used in the B2B SaaS; strong understanding of GAAP/IFRS
  • Prior software sector experience is a strong plus
  • A minimum of 10 years in finance
  • Bachelor’s degree in a quantitative field (Finance, Accounting, Economics), MBA and/or CPA is a plus
