Job Description

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

This role can be based out of either our Sydney or Melbourne campus. Our flagship campus is in Sydney, with a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide too. But you have choice in where and how 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 flavour 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:

• Partnering closely with our Topline Finance team, staying close to the strategic bets running across Product, Growth and GTM
• Working with Growth and Product teams to identify and size key strategic bets against revenue and MAU targets during annual planning
• Translating strategic initiatives and experiment results into financial outcomes that feed our monthly and quarterly revenue forecasting
• Tracking initiative delivery against forecast and flagging changes in scope, timing or impact as they come up
• Maintaining a live view of our financial performance against full-year revenue targets, including risks and opportunities tied to key initiatives
• Monitoring the health of the commercial funnel, spotting shifts early and getting to the bottom of what's driving them
• Leading deep dives into forecast variance with Finance, digging into what's behind gaps between actuals and forecast, and helping us get better at forecasting over time

You're probably a match if

• You've got 5-8 years' experience in an analytical role - financial or business analysis, FP&A, data/BI or strategy - ideally with some time in a high-growth tech or startup environment
• You bring strong analytical and financial modelling skills, and can turn ambiguous strategic initiatives into clear, quantified financial outcomes
• You communicate with confidence, and can simplify complexity for both Finance and Growth/Product audiences
• You know how to build trust and influence stakeholders across Finance, Product, Growth and GTM
• You're comfortable making decisions based on data, with a genuine bias toward rigour
• You're a self-starter who thrives working independently in a fast-paced, still-forming environment
• You're genuinely curious about how strategic decisions play out in the numbers

About the team

The Foundational Goal Strategy & Performance team sits at the heart of driving Canva's growth and impact.
