Working at Atlassian
Atlassian can hire people in any country where we have a legal entity. Assuming you have eligible working rights and a sufficient time zone overlap with your team, you can choose to work remotely or return to an office as they reopen (unless it's necessary for your role to be performed in the office). Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
Atlassian has an exciting opportunity for a dynamic HR Business Partner Leader to deliver strategic HR solutions. This position will partner with the platform engineering organization, connect business strategy and people priorities. This role will lead an HRBP Team that partners with global leaders and their teams spanning across America, Europe and Asia.
Reporting into the Global Head of HRBPs - R&D, this person will support these functions with the help of HR Enablement Partners, ER partners, and the COEs. As with all matrixed organizations, collaboration is key.
The ideal candidate is a strategic and objective thinker, but scrappy and able to pivot quickly to changing priorities and decisions. Being a TEAM company, the ability to collaborate and partner with cross-functional teams to deliver outcomes are key enablers to success in this role. The ideal candidate will need to have deep HR craft knowledge, with practical experience executing in a fast scaling environment and the ability to solve for problems effectively.
Atlassian is looking for someone who is passionate about delivering business impact and who truly understands the strategic value HR has in delivering a business unit's key objectives. Atlassian is at an unprecedented moment in their growth as they scale a company, much of which is predicated on continuing to build a world-class Product organization.
In this role, you'll be expected to:

• Partner with executive leadership and their team, playing the role of a strategic advisor and team player.
• Identify, assess, and proactively drive for people priorities such as leadership development, workforce planning, improving DEI and engagement with a data-driven approach, strongly aligning to the engineering team's objectives.
• Provide coaching for senior leaders to help them overcome people challenges and achieve business impact.
• Anticipate changes in the pipeline where possible to design for a future proof workforce and org structure.
• Form strong collaborative partnership with the rest of HRBP team and COEs to understand the deliverables of each of them and impact to the group (Engineering) that you support.
• Be the representative of HR delivery to the leadership team including synthesizing the programs that are being delivered in a simplified manner for easy consumption by the 'end users'.
• Be the voice of strategic business needs to help shape COE roadmaps and change readiness for new or existing programs.
• Measure and report out regular metrics on the aligned workforce.

Professional Qualifications:

• 10+ years of HRBP experience, ideally in a fast-paced and dynamic operating environment.
• Experience working in the technology sector is ideal but not a must.
• Demonstrated experience leading and managing HRBP teams.
• Recent, relevant experience working cross-functionally.
• Stellar communication skills and extensive experience managing senior stakeholders.
• A big picture thinker who can also translate ideas into execution plans and delivery.
• Experience driving executive communications on announcements and change management.
• Comfort with ambiguity, with the ability to synthesize abstract concepts and shape them into a simple plan.
• Ability to pivot quickly to changing priorities and communicate change in an organized and effective way.
• Strong understanding of key people processes eg. talent management philosophies, compensation programs and various components of pay (base salary, bonus programs, equity programs, etc).

More about you:

• Objective thinker with an ability to get to the source of problems rather than solving for symptoms.
• Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Inspires a culture of innovation, execution, collaboration, accountability, and positivity.
• Highest ethical standards, integrity, authenticity, credibility and character.
• Strong work ethic and passion around the People and Talent function.
