Senior Manager Pacific Rim Strategy Group Australia 

Website Pacific Rim Strategy Group

Your Mandate: Architect Growth

As a Commercial Strategy Manager at Atlas, you will be the primary strategic architect for 2-3 client engagements at any given time. You will move beyond analysis to become a trusted advisor, embedding within leadership teams to diagnose commercial challenges, design actionable strategies, and drive execution. Your work will directly shape market entries, pricing strategies, operational scaling, investment theses, and exit preparations for some of Australia’s most promising companies.

This is not a conventional consulting role. You will see your strategies through to implementation, measuring success in tangible commercial outcomes—revenue growth, margin expansion, market share gains, and successful capital events. You will build deep, lasting relationships with founders and executives, becoming a valued part of their growth story.

  • Facilitate executive workshops and strategy sessions to align leadership teams on vision and execution priorities.

3. Execution & Implementation Support

  • Prepare companies for capital raising or strategic exits, including investor material development and due diligence readiness.

  • Develop thought leadership content (whitepapers, industry analyses) to enhance the firm’s market presence.

  • Build and maintain a network of industry contacts and subject matter experts.
