Job Description

At Canva, we’re on a mission to empower the world to design. We’re democratising design because we believe that everyone, everywhere, deserves the ability to express their ideas and unleash their creativity.

Inspired by a team of talented creatives, an amazing culture, and remarkable growth trajectorywe’re one of the world’s fastest growing technology companies and we have only achieved about 1% of what we are hoping to do! 

A crucial ingredient to empowering the world to design is education. One way we do this is through Design School education that aims to give people who don’t consider themselves ‘designers’ the creative confidence to achieve their goals. Another way we do this is through our Canva Foundation Education to Employment Project. This aims to equip youth living in poverty with basic graphic design skills to empower them to get a job in the digital economy and earn a living wage.  This project is in very early stages, so there is amazing potential to shape the future impact and trajectory of this initiative and change the lives of individuals in this program. 

If you’d love the opportunity to contribute to a product that is seen and used by over 45 million people across 190 different countries, and our newly formed Foundation, join us! We’re out to change the world, one design at a time.
