At Canva, we celebrate diversity. We deeply believe that bringing together diversity of thoughts, perspectives and expression is key to building the best product, team and company. We look for many different skills and abilities, as well as how you can enhance Canva and our culture. So, even if you don’t think you quite meet all of the skills listed or tick all the boxes, we’d still love to hear from you!

Our mission at Canva is to empower the world to design and since launching in 2013, we have grown exponentially, amassing over 75 million monthly active users across 190 different countries and a team of over 2,800 people… and the best bit is that we’ve only achieved 1% of what we know we’re capable of.

Join us and design your future.

About the group

Our Product Growth Supergroup exists to drive Canva’s user & revenue growth through product-led growth strategies that demonstrate the full value of Canva’s products to our users.

We are responsible for the overall revenue growth from our business customers, by driving adoption of our subscription products: Canva Pro & Enterprise.

Growing our adoption and expansion in teams & businesses of all sizes is a core company strategy for Canva. Our group is doubling down on our premium teams products and new product initiatives for businesses, as well as building up a high-performing cross-functional GTM organisation consisting of Product, Growth, Marketing, Sales, Data & more, to supercharge our growth.

A key pillar of our GTM engine is our Product-led Sales motion. This is a data & product-led sales customer acquisition strategy that complements our successful self-serve engine, by offering a layer of low-touch human support via our team of Product Advocates.

Our goal is to assist paid teams in small and medium businesses to onboard and rapidly experience success on Canva through a combination of low-touch conversion tactics, such as in-product chat, demos & webinars.

Canva already counts many active users from over 85% of Fortune 1000 companies amongst our 80 million+ MAUs, and has over 5 million paid subscriptions. These numbers are growing rapidly every day, so we have a huge opportunity in front of us to build a world-class product-led sales motion that generates hundreds of millions of dollars in subscription revenue.

We are early on in our journey to make Canva a ubiquitous presence in teams and businesses, and there is a whole lot more to do to achieve our vision and so we are looking for a Lead to help us build our Product-led Sales org, and help propel us towards our goal of helping every team leverage the power of Canva as a visual communication tool.
