Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

Hello, 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 office is in Sydney, Australia, but we've made our way from down under, to a hub in San Francisco, which is now home to our US operations. We offer flexibility in how and where you work. We trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

What you’d be doing in this role

As Canva scales change continues to be part of our DNA. But we like to think that's all part of the fun. So this will give you the flavor of the type of things you'll be working on when you start, but this will likely evolve.

At the moment, this role is focused on:

Owning the GTM Operating Cadence

• Design and run the operating rhythm for the whole GTM org & Sales & Success Supergroup, from leadership forums through to all-hands, activations and QBRs.

• Partner with the Chief of Staff and Group Leadership so every meeting, ritual and forum has a clear purpose, the right audience, and a sharper outcome than the one before.

• Hold the org accountable to its cadence. Notice when a ritual has lost its edge and reset it.

Owning GTM-Wide Communications

• Be the comms drumbeat for GTM - from maintaining and keeping our Slack clean, through to dynamic newsletters & face to face touch points

• Translate complex updates from senior leaders into clear, useful messages that land for everyone from a regional sales rep to a systems admin

• Build the comms muscle of the org and define what great looks like

Driving End-to-End Program Delivery

• Work hand in glove with the GTM Strategy & Operations team and set clear work streams with owners, milestones and momentum - experience in GTM programs is essential

• Keep a large cross-functional team of operators on track to deliver on their work streams- from AI iniatives through to enablement masterclasses

• Work closely with the Chief of Staff & CCO on company-wide programs, including supporting with goal tracking, comms updates, and wrangling multiple supergroups

Partnering on Org-Wide Events

• Partner with the Chief of Staff to design and run GTM’s flagship moments, including GKO and other org-wide events that shape how the team feels and performs

• In conjunction with the Chief of Staff, drive the operational backbone of these events end-to-end, from concept through to logistics, content and the follow through

You're probably a match if

• You’re a natural operator. You’ve set the operating cadence for an org before. You’ve owned org-wide communications. You’ve run big moments and made them feel effortless

• You have 5+ years of deep program and project management experience, ideally inside a fast-growing tech or scale-up environment, and you've delivered complex cross-functional programs end-to-end

• You have a strong GTM instinct. You can sit with a regional sales lead and talk pipeline, sit with a Success leader and talk renewals, then turn around and document a brief to share with group leadership

• You bring top-tier communication skills across written, verbal, async and live

• You’re a relationship-building powerhouse, building trust quickly with senior leaders, peers and ICs.

• You bring clarity to ambiguity, making sense of shifting priorities and driving alignment when things are still forming

• You spot gaps and fix them. You run experiments. You improve the system as you go

• You bring great energy and a great vibe. You uplift the people around you and contribute to a positive, collaborative culture.

• You’re excited about leveraging AI to automate, optimize and elevate operational impact
