Senior Commercial Counsel DACH Vollzeit
Overview
Working at Atlassian
Atlassian is a friendly place to work. We are a growing, publicly-traded, $5 billion Software company with over 12,000 employees worldwide, elected by Glassdoor as one of the Best Places to Work in 2023. We have a strong business in EMEA, where we generate around 40% of our Revenue.
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. Interviews and onboarding are conducted virtually, a part of being a distributed-first company.
