- is consolidating its Australia and New Zealand sales business under a single country leader. This is a newly shaped role: one leader accountable for the entire ANZ number across both Commercial and Enterprise, based in Sydney, reporting to the APAC Managing Director.

- You'd be joining at a genuinely formative moment: the country model for ANZ is new, the operating systems are being built now, and the person in this seat will shape how runs this market for years rather than inheriting someone else's design.
