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.

About the Group

The Foundational Goal Strategy team is at the heart of driving Canva’s growth and impact as part of our mission to empower the world to design. We partner across the organisation to tackle our biggest strategic questions, shape long-term opportunities, and ensure we’re focused on the most impactful priorities.

As part of this team, you’ll join a group of problem-solvers who proactively surface new growth opportunities, and thrive on tackling challenges and informing decisions that influence Canva’s growth trajectory. We’re united by a shared ambition: to empower the world to design, and build one of the world’s most valuable companies.

Team members are analytical and strategic, with a pragmatic sense for how to get things done, through positive relationships across the organisation.

If you love solving big problems, rallying others to a shared vision, and enabling a global business to scale, this is the team for you!

About the Role

This is a high-impact generalist strategy role. You'll work across the full breadth of Canva's strategic landscape — product, growth, GTM, commercials - picking up new problem spaces quickly and delivering structured, actionable recommendations.

You'll thrive here if you bring sharp analytical thinking (from consulting, banking, or product management), a hunger to learn fast, and the ability to translate ambiguity into clarity. We're looking for someone who can operate independently on projects, build trust with senior stakeholders, and bring both rigour and creativity to how Canva thinks about growth.

What you’ll do:

• Tackle some of the most complex strategic challenges Canva faces, across the full spectrum of product innovation, market expansion, GTM, commercials, and more.
• Lead projects to support the development of Canva's near- and long-term strategy, helping shape the growth trajectory of the organisation over the next decade
• Approach novel or ambiguous problem statements with a clear, structured methodology to drive clarity and direction
• Proactively identify and evaluate high-impact growth opportunities for Canva, leveraging market trends, internal insights, and competitive intelligence
• Work collaboratively with your strategy and data peers across the team
• Align cross-functional teams and senior leaders to prioritise and solve high-impact challenges

What we're looking for

• 5-8 years of experience across strategy consulting, investment banking, corporate strategy, product management, or product growth - ideally with some experience in a high-growth tech or startup environment
• Exceptional problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to structure ambiguous problems and drive to clear recommendations
• Strong communicator who can simplify complexity and present confidently to business and technical leaders at all levels
• Ability to build relationships, influence stakeholders, and drive alignment across functions
• High comfort with data-driven decision making and a bias toward rigour
• Self-starter with strong collaboration skills who thrives in a fast-paced, high-ambiguity environment
• Genuine curiosity about how products grow and how business models scale

What's in it for you?

Achieving our crazy big goals motivates us to work hard - and we do - but you'll experience lots of moments of magic, connectivity and fun woven throughout life at Canva, too. We also offer a range of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer:

• Equity packages - we want our success to be yours too
• Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers
• An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, office setup & more
• Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge and supports you personally
