What are the responsibilities and job description for the Partner Manager, Technical Programs – MSP position at Atlassian?
Overview
Atlassian is on a mission to unleash the potential in every team.
Our partners are a critical route to market, and we’re expanding our Managed Service Provider (MSP) ecosystem to deliver Atlassian-powered managed services to enterprise customers worldwide.
As Partner Manager, Technical Programs – MSP, you will lead the design and execution of scalable technical programs that enable MSP partners to build, launch, and grow differentiated managed service offerings. You’ll work at the intersection of technology, go-to-market strategy, and partner business growth — creating the frameworks, assets, and enablement that ensure MSPs can deliver enterprise-grade solutions at scale.
This role is not about project-by-project delivery. Instead, you’ll drive programmatic engagement across a portfolio of partners, influencing their technical capabilities, GTM readiness, and service innovation over the long term. You will operate cross-functionally with Atlassian’s product, engineering, partners and sales teams to align partner offerings with market needs, customer requirements, and Atlassian’s strategic priorities.
