An overview of this role

As a Renewals Manager at GitLab, you’ll own the end-to-end renewal lifecycle for a defined portfolio of ANZ customers, protecting and growing recurring revenue while ensuring a smooth, transparent experience at every contract touchpoint.

You’ll engage customers well ahead of renewal, lead pricing and commercial discussions, negotiate renewal paths, and proactively address risk so customers can continue to rely on GitLab without disruption.

This is a quota-carrying role within the Renewals team, and you’ll work closely with Account Executives, Customer Success, Solutions Architects, Finance, Legal, and Product to forecast outcomes, reduce churn, and uncover expansion opportunities where appropriate.

For ANZ, this role also includes partner-led renewals and reseller coordination where relevant, reflecting GitLab’s renewals rules of engagement for channel opportunities and partner incumbency.

You’ll also help customers navigate the transition from seat-based licensing to GitLab’s consumption-based Flex pricing model, including usage discussions, scenario modeling, and renewal structures that align to how customers plan to consume the platform.
