Head of Talent Acquisition, Business Teams - North America
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.

Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
We are seeking an experienced Talent Acquisition leader to look after our business recruiting teams, which includes our rapidly-scaling go to market functions (marketing, sales and customer support) as well as G+A. We are in the midsts of an incredible scaling journey, and are looking for a leader impassioned by rapid growth, opportunity for impact and strong partnership with the business leaders.
