Overview

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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.

Responsibilities

Your future team

We're looking for a passionate Director of Legal to join our dynamic and collaborative Global Policy and Regulatory Affairs team at Atlassian! You'll join a growing global team of public policy and legal professionals that monitors and engages with the evolving technology regulatory and policy landscape to build customer trust, accelerate our business, and foster the responsible adoption of technology. You will be an individual contributor reporting to the Director of Regulatory Affairs & Ethics.

We believe in putting customers first, playing as a team, and thinking beyond "legal compliance". Successful teammates are lifelong learners who are curious and collaborative.

What You'll Do

• Help build Atlassian's regulatory affairs function globally.
• Identify and analyze the latest regulatory and legislative proposals in technology regulation worldwide (with a focus on the US, Europe, UK and Australia), ensuring substantive and effective engagement on these issues both within Atlassian and externally.
• Partner with teams across Atlassian to understand and advise on the impact of emerging laws and regulations, and help prepare strategies to respond to them.

Qualifications

Your background

• 6 + years practicing law
• Necessary qualifications to practice law in your local jurisdiction
• Background in one or more areas of technology law and regulation (including competition/antitrust, privacy, cybersecurity, online safety and platform liability) and a demonstrated interest in expanding into more of these areas over time
• Familiarity with the legal environment in one or more relevant jurisdictions (including the US, Europe, UK and Australia)
• Experience distilling complex legal and technical concepts into clear language
• Demonstrated growth mindset and the ability to succeed in a dynamic and remote-friendly workplace

Compensation

At Atlassian, we strive to design equitable and explainable compensation programs. To support this goal, the baseline of our range is higher than that of the typical market range, but in turn we expect to hire most candidates near this baseline. Base pay within the range is ultimately determined by a candidate's skills, expertise, or experience.

Role

In the United States, we have three geographic pay zones. For this role, our current base pay ranges for new hires in each zone are:

Zone A: $221,900 - $295,900

Zone B: $199,700 - $266,300

Zone C: $184,200 - $245,600

This role may also be eligible for benefits, bonuses, commissions, and equity.
