Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora, 你好, hallo, vítejte!

Thanks for stopping by. We know job hunting can be a little time consuming and you're probably keen to find out what's on offer, so we'll get straight to the point.

Where and how you can work

Our flagship campus is in Sydney. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. But you have choice in where and how you work, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

We are a highly collaborative team made up of skilled people with a broad range of experience from companies such as Google, Zoom, Atlassian and eBay. We need YOU to help Canva keep moving fast as we continue to build a world-class FP&A function.

You will use your curiosity to uncover information beneath the surface, apply your analytical mindset to turn that information into clear insights, and draw on your interpersonal skills to deliver those insights to our key partners in an engaging and informative way.
