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

Our flagship campus is in Sydney. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. But you have choice in where and how you work. That means if you want to do your thing in the office (if you're near one), at home or a bit of both, it's up to you. 

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.

  • Being integral to Canva’s response to sudden and fast-moving geopolitical or physical crises that may impact our people’s safety. 

  • Assessing destination risks from a health, environment, and security perspective to deliver assessments as needed; assessing country or travel risks and providing relevant guidance. 

  • Supporting the design and delivery of enterprise-wide people security and safety programs, as the Protective Security team scales globally. 

Required Experience:

  • Strong background in security management, crisis response and risk management. 

  • Conducting a diverse range of travel risk assessments or country/geopolitical analysis.

  • Creating travel safety and security processes; providing security guidance to travellers or remote workers.
