At ClickUp, we're building the future of work: the first truly converged AI workspace unifying tasks, docs, chat, calendar, and enterprise search, all supercharged by context-driven AI. We are an AI-native company. Every team member is expected to leverage AI daily, and we evaluate AI fluency as part of our hiring process. Join us and help redefine what's possible.

About The Role ClickUp is looking for a Sales Leader to own and accelerate revenue growth across the Asia‑Pacific and Japan (APJ) region. This is a foundational leadership hire on a newly implemented sales motion, responsible for building a direct commercial and enterprise motion in Australia/New Zealand and collaborating to scale a channel‑led GTM across Southeast Asia.

Why This Role Matters APJ is ClickUp's largest underinvested region. The data is clear:

When partners are involved, win rates increase significantly

Channel sales is growing significantly faster than direct sales

Australia alone represents a significant share of APJ revenue with minimal dedicated headcount

Our largest deal in region ever was partner sourced

The strategic foundation is laid. The channel thesis is proven. What's missing is a leader on the ground who can turn our strategy into execution and scale a team that matches the ambition.

What You'll Own Direct Commercial and Enterprise Sales (ANZ)

Build and lead the commercial and enterprise sales function in Australia and New Zealand

Develop pipeline strategy to match our aggressive growth goals

Recruit, hire, and develop Commercial & Enterprise AEs locally

Manage an existing expansion sales team and own growth within current commercial and enterprise accounts

Partner with Solution Consulting and Professional Services to deliver against complex enterprise evaluations

Partner & Channel Collaboration (Southeast Asia & Broader APJ)

Partner closely with the Channel team on go-to-market strategy across Rest of Asia (ROA), supporting our Partner Managers to drive regional execution

Collaborate on joint partner/direct sales motions across APJ,



with ROA as partner‑first and ANZ following

Work alongside the Channel team to support and scale a tiered partner ecosystem (resellers, SIs, ISVs, referral partners) across APJ

Support partner-sourced and partner‑influenced pipeline generation, leveraging proven win-rate uplift across the region

Contribute to joint business plans, mutual action plans, and quarterly performance reviews with priority partners

Participate in co‑selling motions on strategic partner‑led deals, supporting the Channel team to close

Own the APJ revenue number across Enterprise and Commercial segments

Build and present accurate pipeline forecasts, coordinating with the Channel team on partner pipeline

Develop territory and account segmentation strategy for ANZ and ROA

Drive operational rhythm: pipeline reviews, QBRs, forecasting, deal inspection

Align with Customer Success to protect and expand existing ARR

What We're Looking For Must‑Have

Significant experience in B2B SaaS sales with meaningful time in a leadership role (Director+ level)

Proven track record of building and scaling sales teams in ANZ

Familiarity with channel‑led and partner‑driven GTM motions, with a collaborative mindset toward working with channel teams

Demonstrated ability to sell into commercial and enterprise organisations across multiple APJ markets

Track record of delivering against ambitious ARR targets with a blend of direct and partner‑influenced revenue

Strong executive presence with the ability to influence at C‑level in both customers and partner organisations

Commercial & Enterprise acumen: ability to build business cases, territory plans, and joint partner business plans

Nice‑to‑Have

Experience in the work management, productivity, or collaboration SaaS category





Familiarity with PLG (product‑led growth) motions and how they intersect with commercial and enterprise sales

Existing relationships with commercial and enterprise channel partners and SIs across ANZ and SEA

Experience working with or selling AI‑powered products

Experience navigating the complexity of SEA markets: language, culture, procurement norms, and regulatory environments

Background in building partner ecosystems

Prior experience at a high‑growth company during a significant scale‑up phase
