About the Group

At Canva, we empower the world to design. People only create in places they trust, and the Trust & Safety (T&S) Group vision is that Canva is the world’s most trusted platform for safe design. In our mission to safeguard our community, we work with a lot of efforts to prevent and mitigate incidents that could compromise the trust people have in Canva, from adult content to child abuse material, misinformation to hate speech, phishing, spam, bots, account takeovers, and other abuse vectors.

Abusive content and behaviour is not only directly against our values, it hurts our business as well. We create crucial detection, review, and moderation services to understand and address Canva’s complex and changing world. Some of the biggest changes we need to address are the continuously growing international user base, content and usage types, new features, regulatory requirements, and evolving abuse vectors.

The position requires efficient review skills, experience in Trust & Safety (T&S) / abuse mitigation operations, high attention to detail, and the ability to problem solve and give feedback to continue improving our T&S policies and tools. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about maintaining high standards in content review, moderation, and process knowledge.

What you’ll do...

Implement Trust & Safety Policy, including Content Moderation, handling incidents, escalations, appeals, and quality assurance for outsourced staff.
Refine T&S Content Moderation enforcement guidelines and standard operating procedures (SOP) to improve impact, such as in efficient task handling.
Operate and refine moderation systems and processes, working in close collaboration with T&S engineering as their primary user
Collaborate with your team and others to thrive towards operational excellence to ensure Canva is the most trusted company for safe design.
Ensure Canva’s values and policies are consistently applied in the moderation of user-generated content, Canva’s content library.

You will need to be flexible, pragmatic, strategic, tenacious, and take ownership of deliverables and outcomes.
