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

We offer flexibility in how and where you work. We trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

About the team

Canva’s accounting team is a part of the Finance Group, which is predominantly based in Australia, although we have team members in the Philippines, EMEA, and obviously the United States (like this role!).

Canva is increasingly exposed to a broader range of external stakeholders, regulators and reporting requirements. The Accounting team is responsible for the close process and brings clarity to the chaos.

We work to build trust and reliability in all our financial information, making sure all our accounting positions are understandable both within the company and by our external stakeholders and regulators.

No two days are the same at Canva. You could be advising on a commercial transaction and its external reporting impacts one minute, and be managing the implementation of a new process for the financial statements.

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 range 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
• Health benefits plans to support you and your wellbeing
• 401(k) retirement plan with company contribution
• Inclusive parental leave policy that supports all parents & carers
• An annual Vibe & Thrive allowance to support your wellbeing, social connection, office setup & more
