Company Description
Hey, hello, hiya, 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 headquarters is in sunny Sydney, Australia, but our team spans the globe. While we support flexible, remote-friendly ways of working, for this role, we’re focusing on São Paulo, Brazil, so we can best support our teams and keep collaboration flowing.
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:
- Owning Education as a growth vertical in Brazil — driving activation, repeat usage, and measurable adoption across teachers and students.
- Designing and executing Brazil’s education growth strategy — from grassroots teacher engagement to municipality-level partnerships.
- Shifting the focus from “train” to “activate & retain” — embedding Canva into everyday classroom workflows.
- Aligning Sales, Marketing, Content, Product, and Partnerships around clear education growth outcomes.
- Identifying friction in onboarding and reducing barriers to sustained usage at scale.
- Building scalable, locally relevant initiatives that turn education into a compounding acquisition and frequency engine.
You're probably a match if
- You have built or scaled something measurable — a market, a vertical, a segment — and can clearly articulate the growth levers behind it.
- You think in activation, retention, and habit formation — not just awareness or top-line sales.
- You are hands-on and comfortable operating without a rigid playbook — rolling up your sleeves when needed.
- You can navigate both grassroots environments (teachers, schools, communities) and strategic conversations (partners, stakeholders, government).
- You thrive in cross-functional environments and can influence without authority.
- You are curious, adaptable, and excited about shaping a vertical that doesn’t yet have a fully defined playbook.
About the team
You’ll join Canva’s International supergroup — a distributed team of growth leaders, marketers, and strategists focused on expanding Canva’s impact across key global markets. In Brazil, you’ll work closely with the Country Manager and collaborate across Sales, Product, Marketing, Partnerships, and Content to build education into a sustainable, high-impact growth engine.
