You will gather customer feedback and convey market needs to inform the Product roadmap and provide insights that strengthen our value proposition and enhance the customer experience

  • Bring chaos to clarity: Simplifying complex situations into digestible customer-ready stories and materials using Canva’s worksuite (presentations, doc etc.)

You're probably a match if

  • You've got experience working with a range of customers, from medium-sized businesses to large corporations. For our Enterprise role, we are looking for people with experience with medium to large sized accounts ideally within a technology company, demonstrating a history of top performance.
