**Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.**

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 it 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.

**About us**

We're not your average procurement team Having only been around for a few years, we're at the start of our Procurement journey, and with that, our approach and processes are constantly evolving as Canva continues to scale.

We have a vision to be the most customer centric Procurement team in the universe, and we view our mission as maximising the impact of every Canvanaut by getting them what they need, when they need it.

The Tech Sourcing Manager will join Canva’s Global Strategic Sourcing team to focus on our SaaS vendor portfolio.

**What you’ll do**
- **Strategy,**contribute to the development and execution of Canva’s SaaS sourcing strategy
- **Be part of the team,**partner with key stakeholders, such as IT, Engineering & Finance, to ensure we’re maximising the value and impact from SaaS contract negotiations
- **Business process improvements,**proactively manage Canva’s 200+ SaaS subscriptions - ensuring advanced planning of renewals and oversee Canva’s Zip requests for new and recurring SaaS subscriptions
- **Customer centric,**continually find ways to streamline the SaaS purchasing process to provide a first-class experience for Canva stakeholders
- **Communication,**develop and execute detailed negotiation plans, delivering preferential pricing; commercial terms; legal terms; and service levels

**What we’re looking for**
- Procurement experience, specifically of Software Licensing
- Ability to successfully lead multiple, concurrent negotiations (we have a high volume of renewals, peaking around EOY)
- Canva moves very fast, so being able to juggle multiple projects of different sizes should be your speciality. Navigate the demands from the business, influencing and winning hearts and minds along the way
- The role certainly has its operational / urgent elements, however, the sign of success is to balance these needs with a longer term strategic focus
- You'll need to be able to deal with a fair degree of ambiguity and be willing to roll up your sleeves to problem solve and negotiate.

**What's in it for you?**

Achieving our crazy big goals motivates us to work hard - and we do - but you'll experience lots of moments of magic, connectivity and fun woven throughout life at Canva, too. We also offer a stack of benefits to set you up for every success in and outside of work.

Here's a taste of what's on offer:

- Equity packages - we want our success to be yours too
- Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers
- An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, office setup & more
- Flexible leave options that empower you to be a force for good, take time to recharge and supports you personally

**Other stuff to know**

We make hiring decisions based on your experience, skills and passion, as well as how you can enhance Canva and our culture. When you apply, please tell us the pronouns you use and any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

Please note that interviews are conducted virtually.
