Asana is looking for a strategic, supportive, and business-savvy leader to manage our global Administrative Business Partner (ABP) community. This is more than a traditional operations role; it is a people-first leadership position designed to bring stability, clarity, and growth to a team that is the backbone of our executive leadership. You will lead our full-time, global ABPs and oversee our offshore ABP support program. Your mission is to balance operational rigor with a human-centric approach, ensuring our ABPs feel supported in their career journeys while providing world-class partnership to Asana’s top executives. This role is based in our San Francisco office with an office-centric hybrid schedule. The standard in-office days are Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday.

About you * 8+ years of people management experience and a proven track record of leading through change with grace and transparency and leading high performing teams.  You have experience in leading remote teams and building relationships with Executive leaders. * Strategic Business Acumen: You don’t just manage tasks; you understand business drivers. You can look at a program and see the ROI (or lack thereof) through data and stakeholder feedback. * Systems Thinking: You love using tools (big plus if that's Asana!) and are proficient in using AI tools to create clarity out of chaos. You think in terms of scalable processes, not just one-off fixes and have a curiosity about leveraging AI to enhance the team’s productivity.  You have established clear role expectations, operating norms, and standards of excellence across executive support functions and the ability to navigate, digest, and make decisions amidst ambiguity. * Executive Presence: You are comfortable interacting with executive leaders, possessing the professional polish and discretion required to manage the teams that support them.  You have experience in building strong relationships with executive leaders who are remotely located.   * Resilience & Stability: You are the calm in the storm.
