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

Alongside our global campuses, we collaborate with talented contractors and freelancers from all over the world to help us achieve our big goals.

While we support flexible, remote-friendly ways of working, this role is based in Sydney to enable close collaboration with our teams.

These are 12-month engagements, working up to 40 hours per week.

We’re hiring two Digital Designers to support our Creative Localisation team across European and Latin American markets.

What you’d be doing in this role

As Canva scales, change continues to be part of our DNA. This gives you a flavour of what you’ll work on, but it will likely evolve.

As a Digital Designer, Creative Localisation, you’ll bridge global creative with local cultural nuance - ensuring Canva’s content feels truly local, not just translated.

Creating and adapting assets for campaigns, product launches, and marketing surfaces across regions

Partnering with external agencies and vendors to scale asset production
Writing briefs, managing feedback loops, and improving output quality at scale
Reviewing and QA’ing localised assets to ensure cultural and visual accuracy
Collaborating with regional stakeholders to refine creative based on market-specific insights
Contributing to and leveraging Canva’s design systems and asset libraries
Supporting motion/video workflows (e.g. preparing assets for animation or collaborating with motion designers)
