Head of Business Architecture - Customer Support Services

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 from an office (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.
We’re looking for an accomplished senior director to lead a team of passionate problem solvers to transform and scale the way Atlassian supports our customers. As part of the Business Transformation Team (BXT) within our Customer Support Services (CSS) department, our Business Architecture team thrives on turning ambiguous problem spaces into transformative solutions that make it effortless to be legendary in Atlassian CSS.
In this role, you’ll leverage BXT’s formidable Data Analytics capability to inform your strategy, fuel your analyses, experiment against hypotheses, and measure the impact of your solutions. You’ll also partner closely with BXT’s Program Delivery team to take your solutions to market, driving measurable impact with a sense of urgency.
Success in this role will require a leader who values diversity of thought and experience, end to end solutions thinking, and applying myriad approaches to solving problems. If you're passionate about leadership, laser-focused on driving business value through innovative solutions, and are motivated by scale, then this is the role for you!

The work you will do:

• Breaking down needed business capabilities into the key components required to achieve the capability, such as processes, people, technology/tooling, and data.
• Partnering with Analytics, Engineering and Program teams to decompose the business capabilities into roadmap that delivers end to end solutions and comprehends value stream dependencies.
• Maintaining a rolling six quarter Business Architecture roadmap of needed business capabilities.
• Staffing your team with the right number of people with the right skill sets to scale and transform our CSS business.
• Documenting the relationships between the business capabilities and components to illustrate how they work together to achieve the organization's goals.
• Designing solutions that provide the data, context, and insights that allows Support Engineers to shine through their product knowledge and troubleshooting prowess.
• Seeking diverse perspectives for solution design - conducting internal research, engaging industry research partners, learning new approaches to problems solving, and talking to analogous companies to learn from them

We don’t expect you to be able to tick every box. We value culture and values fit above everything. If you tick a couple of the below boxes, great! Throw your hat in the ring and let’s go from there;

• Extensive experience designing innovative solutions for complex problems in a fast growing, ever changing business.
• Experience leading a global, remote distributed team.
• Demonstrated experience working in an Agile Development organization with strong knowledge of utilizing tools such as Jira
• Exceptional behavioral assessment capability and the ability to teach this to others.
• A strong learning orientation and examples of high rates of professional growth.
• A strong and diverse background in optimizing and scaling Enterprise Support organizations.
