As the Account Executive Manager, SMB+, you will lead a high-performing team focused on accelerating growth, driving expansion, and delivering exceptional customer experiences across Atlassian's highest-potential SMB accounts. This is a commission-based, quota-carrying sales leadership role that reflects the evolution of our SMB+ motion toward a more proactive, growth-oriented, and platform-led sales model.
You will be responsible for coaching and developing a team of SMB+ Account Executives to execute across warm inbound and behavior-based outbound motions, identify and progress high-quality pipeline, and help customers realize greater value from Atlassian's portfolio. This includes leading expansion plays centered on Teamwork Collection, Rovo, and broader tool consolidation opportunities, while supporting emerging motions across AI and Digital Native accounts.
You will partner closely with cross-functional teams across Marketing, Growth, Solutions Engineering, RevOps, Product, and Channel to improve sales efficiency, strengthen forecasting discipline, and scale repeatable plays that align customer needs with Atlassian's strategic priorities. Success in this role requires a leader who has personally built or operationalized AI-driven workflows, bots, and process automations that measurably improved sales efficiency, not just tools adoption. You'll be expected to architect and iterate on the systems your team uses daily, blending product signals, AI-driven workflows, and human selling into a cohesive motion.
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: $170,104 - $222,081
Zone B: $153,094 - $199,872
Zone C: $141,187 - $184,327

With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
