Molly Hellerman is the Global Head of Innovation Programs at Atlassian. In this role, she drives strategic business decisions for Atlassian’s R&D team, partnering with the CTO and company leaders to inspire and operationalize greater innovation and scale. During her 9+ years at Atlassian, Molly has focused on building and scaling new teams in undefined spaces. She was our first BizOps hire and most recently led Atlassian’s COVID-19 response and development of TEAM Anywhere, our distributed work policy.

Prior to Atlassian, Molly’s experience shows that she isn’t afraid to flip a model on its head. From managing merger and acquisitions to commoditizing the online metal market in the U.K. to co-founding a non-profit – her thread of disruption runs deep. She’s also a former collegiate and professional athlete (Chelsea Ladies FC) and a trainer for Positive Coaching Alliance. Molly currently serves as a Fellow to both the United Nations (Alliance of Civilizations) and the British Council (Transatlantic Network 2020). She holds an MBA from Harvard Business School and a BA in Economics and Spanish from Wellesley College.
