  • Content Design: Leveraging your writing proficiency, User Experience expertise, and understanding of growth strategies, you’ll craft product copy that helps Canva users to realise its full value – and to attract more users. Additionally, you’ll collaborate with the broader Content Design team to address collective challenges, fostering a cohesive and thriving community.
  • Results: You’ll lead initiatives focused on driving growth experiments that generate tangible value for the company.
  • Collaboration: You’ll bring design, PMs, engineers and researchers together to find the best solutions for our users and to mitigate web-related issues by solving problems with languages.

  • You’ve helped a Content Design practice mature in a previous role.
  • You’ve worked on Growth experiments before and have a passion for this fast, iterative way of working
  • You’ve owned Content Design research before and can champion best practices for studies and experiments in the messaging space.
  • You have incredible UX writing skills and an impressive content design portfolio, and are a stickler for brand voice, consistency and style.
  • You know how to work independently, but you also love collaborating with people from different disciplines and sharing the power of content design.
  • You’ve got a good balance between big-picture thinking and nailing the details.
  • You’re not afraid of complex problems – in fact, that’s where you thrive.
  • You know how to get buy-in from key stakeholders. You’ve got a track record of bringing people on the journey with you – they know what’s changing and why.
