About this role

Working at Atlassian

Atlassians can choose where they work – whether in an office, from home, or a combination of the two. That way, Atlassians have more control over supporting their family, personal goals, and other priorities. We can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity.

- Serve as the primary finance partner for the Americas Strategic Sales business, bringing an end-to-end regional view of performance, trade-offs, and growth opportunities.
- Drive accountability for business performance across new business, ARR, renewals, and sustainable growth by framing where the region is outperforming, where execution is off track, and what decisions are needed next. Help leaders distinguish signal from noise by turning complex performance data into simple, decision-ready narratives.
- Support regional operating rhythms across LRP, Plan, Forecast and in-quarter performance with a balanced perspective: strong partnership with the business, paired with independent judgment on performance, assumptions, and risk. Identify growth opportunities and emerging risks and upside early, quantify their likely impact, and ensure they are reflected appropriately in outlooks and leadership narratives.
- Partner on material deals and renewal dynamics by assessing business implications, surfacing trade-offs, and ensuring leadership has a clear view of value, timing, and performance impact.
- Improve the quality of planning and forecasting conversations by focusing teams on key business drivers, not just reported outcomes. Champion continuous improvement in regional planning and insight generation, with an emphasis on simplicity, repeatability, and decision usefulness.

What we’re looking for

- Deep finance business partnering capability in a complex commercial or revenue environment.
- Strong command of planning, forecasting, close, and performance management, with the judgment to know when precision matters and when speed matters more. Ability to synthesize pipeline, renewal, ARR, and growth signals into a coherent regional performance story.
- Track record of influencing senior leaders through analysis, credibility, and thoughtful challenge rather than positional authority.
- Comfort operating in ambiguity, building structure where needed, and making sound recommendations with incomplete information.
- Excellent executive communication skills, especially the ability to convert detailed analysis into clear, concise narratives and decisions.
- A high bar for forecast discipline, data integrity, and follow-through.
- Experience leading through matrix relationships and coordinating across multiple stakeholders without relying on direct-line management.
