Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.
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. That means if you want to do your thing in the office (if you're near one), at home or a bit of both, it's up to you.
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 flavour of the type of things you'll be working on when you start, but this will likely evolve.
About the Growth SuperGroup
The extraordinary growth Canva has experienced to date has been primarily bottom-up and led from within our product, and the Growth 'supergroup' is Canva's center of excellence for product-led growth.
On a mission to Empower the world to enjoy the full value of Canva, this cross-functional, global org of 400+ passionate people, is made up of five groups: Activation & Engagement, Expansion, Monetisation, Revenue Platform, High Velocity Subscriptions Growth, and Sales & Success.
The work Growth does spans from building exciting new growth-focused products & experiences, developing unique and creative growth loops and GTM tactics, launching 100s of experiments each quarter, through to building the global payments & subscriptions infrastructure that allows our monthly users worldwide to access our premium products.
The goals that this organization owns play a central role in our overall company mission and business success. This Supergroup is responsible for a number of critical company metrics, which include signup, onboarding, activation, engagement, frequency of use, retention, collaboration, and monetization - right across our Free, Pro & Team subscription products, globally.
About the Technical Program Managers

You will lead complex, multi-disciplinary programs and be equally comfortable working with leadership to set strategic goals and clarify priorities, as you are with teams to communicate program status, escalate issues and manage dependencies as you are discussing technical trade-offs with an engineer.
About the Opportunity

We do everything from building out complex new payment integrations to enabling other Canva groups to achieve their goals and monetise their features be it through subscription management, flawless checkout journeys or localised payment experiences.
About you

Living and breathing all things growth, you make data-informed, strategic decisions and deliver.
