Where and how you can work

Sydney

Our flagship Sydney campus is uniquely Canva - an extension of our Surry Hills neighbourhood. It’s a thoughtfully designed space with plenty of room to collaborate, focus, and connect.

This role is based in Sydney, and we’re looking for someone who calls it home. Our hybrid way of working gives you the flexibility to work remotely, and to come together on campus for meaningful in-person collaboration and connection when it matters most. We trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals.

What you’d be doing in this role

• Turning campaign briefs, audience insights and performance data into distinctive creative concepts for paid social across Meta, TikTok, YouTube and other channels.
• Writing high-performing hooks, scripts, static copy, carousels and longer-form video content designed to capture attention and drive action.
• Planning and running self-directed shoots for UGC-style, creator-led and direct-to-camera content, including sourcing and directing talent.
• Editing and iterating high volumes of short-form video quickly, using strong judgement around pacing, structure, captions, sound and storytelling.
• Reviewing creative performance across metrics such as hook rate, hold rate, CTR and conversion, and turning those insights into clear hypotheses for the next round of work.
• Remixing and repurposing existing creative into new variations, testing different angles, formats and messages to improve performance.
• Partnering closely with strategists, marketers and media partners to keep creative decisions connected to campaign goals and audience needs.
• Raising the creative bar by bringing strong craft judgement, sharing learnings generously and helping turn successful experiments into repeatable playbooks.

You're probably a match if

• You have 5+ years of experience across performance creative, copywriting, video production, or content creation, with a strong focus on paid social.
• You have a portfolio of YouTube, Meta, or TikTok ads that demonstrate strong performance. You’ve got the polish, and the results.
• You have experience creating and remixing UGC-style content into ads that convert.
• You’re analytically minded: comfortable in dashboards, confident with performance metrics, and able to connect creative decisions to outcomes.
• You have a deep understanding of platform dynamics, formats, and what actually makes people stop scrolling.
• You’re a strong communicator who can present creative rationale clearly to stakeholders.
• You can work at speed and scale, managing multiple projects and tight turnarounds without dropping quality.
