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
Canva has its roots in Australia with our flagship campus in Sydney. We also have a growing presence in the US, with offices in San Francisco, CA and Austin, TX.

About the Group
As Canva continues to grow and expand globally, our Revenue Operations team plays a critical role within the broader Order-to-Cash ecosystem. Revenue Operations leads the governance and execution of deal economics, approvals, provisioning, order execution, and downstream handoffs across the revenue lifecycle.
We partner closely with Systems, Finance, Legal, and Sales to ensure our commercial processes scale effectively. Our goal is to enable enterprise growth with speed and discipline while maintaining strong governance, operational rigor, and trusted data across the quote-to-cash lifecycle.
About the Role

What you’ll do
- Lead and develop global teams across Deal Desk, Deal Operations, Sales Provisioning, and Order Management, fostering ownership and operational excellence.
- Enable faster deal cycles by defining clear pricing guardrails, approval frameworks, and standardized commercial playbooks.
- Improve deal economics through data-driven insights on discounting, incentives, and commercial structures.
- Design scalable, automated workflows across CPQ, provisioning, and order management to reduce friction and operational risk.
- Ensure clean activation, accurate entitlements, and seamless handoffs across Billing, Support, and Revenue Accounting within the OTC process.
What we’re looking for
- Proven experience leading Revenue Operations, Deal Desk, or Sales Operations teams in high-growth SaaS or enterprise environments.
- Demonstrated success improving deal velocity while maintaining strong governance and controls.
- Strong commercial and financial acumen with the ability to assess deal structures and economics.
- Experience scaling processes and automation within Salesforce, CPQ, and provisioning/order systems.
- Exceptional cross-functional leadership skills, aligning Sales, Finance, Legal, and Systems around simple, scalable solutions.
