Our culture and benefits
Experience the magic
It’s hard to explain what makes life at Canva so special, but we’ve boiled it down to two key ingredients: amazing, talented people around the world and a values-driven culture that inspires us to do our best work.
One things for sure, our unique culture plays a huge role in everything you’ll experience. We’re always looking for new ways to make your Canva journey truly magical.
Grow your skills with us
We want you to challenge and be challenged with exciting opportunities to learn and grow. Every role at Canva is supported by a growth and development framework so you can have an impact every step of the way.
Craft
Craft is all about honing your skill set and applying the tools of the trade to solve complex problems and maximise opportunities. How can you be the most effective product designer, product coordinator, engineer, growth marketer, or customer happiness rep at Canva? Each specialty has its own skill-based curriculum.
Strategy
At Canva, there are often many different ways you can approach a problem. Strategy is all about solving problems in the most effective way and spotting opportunities to leapfrog the company forward
Communication
We’ll help you to develop constructive communication skills. You’ll be supported and help promote sharing within your team and across the company to create alignment and team cohesiveness.
Leadership and coaching
Leadership and coaching at Canva mean supporting and empowering others and helping them achieve their goals. On a micro-level, coaching has layers to unfold, from mentoring, and teaching, to affecting developmental change. This pillar is especially critical for anyone leading projects or teams.
