Job Description

Join the team redefining how the world experiences design.

Ahoj, 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, Australia but Prague is home to part of our European operations. And with that, you'll have choice in how you work, 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

As Canva scales change 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.

At the moment, this role is focused on:

• Tell the Story Behind the Numbers
  Craft clear, actionable narratives using data. Turn complex insights into simple stories that inspire action—whether with product teams, regional leadership, or the whole company.

• Identify Problems Before They’re Obvious
  Proactively surface growth bottlenecks, user behavior shifts, or product mismatches in the region—so we’re always one step ahead.

• Build the Data Foundation for GPTN
  Design and build dashboards from scratch that bring visibility to our most important GPTN metrics—across user growth, retention, monetization, campaign performance, and more.

• Own GPTN Data Strategy End-to-End
  Define how we track success across the region by setting clear and relevant targets. Build frameworks and KPIs that help us measure impact and make better decisions—tailored to local market nuance.

• Partner with Local, Regional, and Central Teams
  Act as the bridge between our GPTN teams (marketing, country managers, community), and global product and data functions. Ensure local insights are reflected in global priorities, and ensure a two-way flow of local and global insights.

• Support Product & Experimentation Initiatives
  Work closely with product teams to help design and measure new feature performance, local experiments, and A/B tests in the markets.

You're probably a match if

• You have several years of experience in data analytics, growth, or product analytics roles

• You have strong SQL and Python data wrangling skills; able to work independently with large, messy datasets

• You do have experience partnering with cross-functional teams (marketing, product, growth, ops), and using data to influence decisions

• You bring strong communication and storytelling skills—you make data land, not just show up

• You are a strategic thinker who can zoom out and prioritize what really moves the needle

• You have proven experience building dashboards and tracking frameworks from the ground up

• You have the ability to define and track key metrics across the user journey (e.g., signups, MAU, retention, monetization)

• You bring a bias to action—you’re comfortable in ambiguity and take ownership without waiting for a brief

• You had prior exposure to experimentation and A/B testing frameworks

• You have a familiarity with Canva’s data stack (Looker, Snowflake, Mode, Netspring)

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience working in or analyzing European markets

• Understanding of mobile analytics and behavioral funnels

• Experience supporting product teams or market localization initiatives

• Passion for Canva’s mission and a natural curiosity for how people use technology across cultures

About the team

At Canva, we’ve just unlocked a huge opportunity in GPTN (Germany, Poland, Turkey, Netherlands): for the first time, we’re building a dedicated regional team to understand, grow, and serve the unique needs of our users across the four countries.

As the Regional Data Lead for GPTN, you’ll be the first dedicated analytics voice for this region—shaping how we understand our users, measure what matters, and build a data-informed growth strategy that connects our local markets with our global product teams.

If you’re excited about building from scratch, partnering closely with teams across marketing, product, and community, and helping one of the world’s fastest-growing platforms localize with care—this is your chance.
