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.

- Owning and reporting on key metrics, including development of and maintenance of dashboards for the team’s initiatives.
- Closely collaborating with senior team members and taking the initiative to keep things moving - identifying the opportunities where the team can make the largest impact and see it through.
- Owning projects, data models, dashboards, and other artefacts and keeping them up-to-date and high quality in a hyper-growth environment.

**You're probably a match if**:

- You have experience leading data and/or cross functional teams.
- You work with subscription-based data sets.
- You’ve got exceptional proficiency with SQL; experience with data warehouses such as Snowflake, Redshift, or BigQuery, as well as experience building and maintaining ETL pipelines is a plus
- You have proven commercial competence and experience working with finance teams and executives. A finance related qualification such as CA, CFA or MBA is a huge plus, but not required.

Finance at Canva is responsible for both connecting company strategy to group planning and execution as well as connecting performance cycles and modelling to the business. Supporting the group Chief Finance Officer (CFO), the Finance team is on a critical path to ensure Canva transitions successfully from a start-up to a large scale organisation, supporting billions of users across the globe.

As the Data Lead, your role is own thethe development of data capabilities to support the Finance team across three key pillars: forecasting, reporting, and accounting.

As the Finance’s data specialist, you will also partner with internal Finance customers, including investor relations, tax and legal teams.

This role will rely on your particular strengths in building out data-driven decisions, communicating closely with collaborators, and organising your fellow data team members such that the data attitude in this space is highly proactive.
