  • Own and drive business reviews to inform the Rovo & AI leaders and Atlassian’s executive team of progress against operational plans and health of key drivers of the business

  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional stakeholders, including product, sales, marketing, data science and finance teams

On your first day, we’ll expect you to:

  • Have 8+ years experience in high growth software / tech industry in BizOps and / or consulting, investment banking roles
