Atlassian is seeking a Credit and Collections Manager to lead the Credit and Collections function for the AMER region. This regional people manager role is accountable for delivering reliable operational outcomes through a team, strengthening credit and collections controls, and partnering cross-functionally to reduce risk, improve cash performance, and support Atlassian’s quote-to-cash priorities across AMER.

You’re a great fit for this role if you’re a hands-on people leader who builds high-performing teams, uses data to drive decisions, operates with strong judgment, and can balance customer empathy with disciplined credit and collections practices.

If you’re ready to help scale a critical regional finance operation at Atlassian, we’d be glad to have you on board.

In this role, you’ll get to:

• Lead day-to-day Credit and Collections operations through a team, ensuring clear priorities, service levels, controls, and escalation paths.

• Manage, coach, and develop team members by setting expectations, providing regular feedback, supporting career growth, and building a culture of accountability and continuous improvement.

• Oversee credit assessment, credit limit management, credit monitoring, collections, disputes resolution, and customer account reviews.

• Review and approve complex or escalated credit check requests in line with approved credit policies, risk appetite, and business needs.

• Use credit risk analysis and portfolio insights to identify emerging customer risk, recommend mitigation plans, and communicate trade-offs to stakeholders.

• Partner closely with Sales, Customer and Partner Advocates, Sales Operations, Revenue, Accounting, and IT to align credit decisions, resolve customer issues, and protect Atlassian’s financial position.

• Design and execute collections strategies that improve timely recovery of outstanding debts while maintaining a thoughtful customer experience.

• Establish team targets, operational priorities, and performance routines for key metrics such as DSO, Collections Efficiency Index, aging, average days delinquent, dispute cycle time, and write-off trends.

• Review monthly and quarterly Accounts Receivable subsidiary and general ledger reconciliations, AR aging analysis, allowance for doubtful accounts, bad debt provisioning, and AR flux analysis.

• Own or contribute to updates for the Credit Check Policy, Collections Policy, Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Policy, and Write-Off Policy.

• Lead process improvement, automation, documentation, and control enhancement efforts that increase scalability, accuracy, and team effectiveness.

• Coordinate audit requirements for internal and external auditors, ensuring timely, accurate responses and appropriate remediation of findings.

• Communicate operational performance, risks, decisions, and recommendations clearly to leaders and cross-functional stakeholders.

• Support ad hoc projects and related finance initiatives as business needs evolve.

On your first day, we’ll expect that you have the following:

• A degree in Accounting, Finance, Business, or a related field.

• 7+ years of progressive experience in Accounts Receivable, Credit, Collections, Order to Cash, or a related finance operations function.

• 3+ years of people leadership experience, including responsibility for coaching, performance management, prioritization, and team development.

• Strong knowledge of credit management, collections, disputes, AR accounting, reconciliations, allowance for doubtful accounts, write-offs, and related controls.

• Experience leading operational processes in a multinational, shared services, BPO, SaaS, technology, or similarly complex environment.

• Demonstrated ability to use data, metrics, and root-cause analysis to improve operational performance and influence decisions.

• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to partner with Sales, Accounting, Revenue, IT, Customer Support, and other cross-functional teams.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain credit and collections decisions, risks, and trade-offs clearly.

• Experience improving processes, strengthening controls, creating documentation, and supporting audit requirements.

• High attention to detail, strong judgment, and the ability to balance strategic priorities with hands-on operational execution.

It’s also great if you have the following:

• Experience with Oracle Fusion.

• Proficiency with major ERP and accounting systems such as SAP, NetSuite, or similar platforms.

• General ledger, revenue accounting, billing operations, or broader quote-to-cash experience.
