At Canva, we celebrate diversity. We deeply believe that bringing together diversity of thoughts, perspectives and expression is key to building the best product, team and company. We look for many different skills and abilities, as well as how you can enhance Canva and our culture. So, even if you don’t think you quite meet all of the skills listed or tick all the boxes, we’d still love to hear from you!

Our mission at Canva is to empower the world to design and since launching in 2013, we have grown exponentially, amassing over 86 million monthly active users across 190 different countries and a team of over 3,000 people… and the best bit is that we’ve only achieved 1% of what we know we’re capable of.

Join us and design your future.

About The Team

The mission statement of the Planning & Reporting team is to be the guardians of the Canva twelve month rolling forecast and all financial reporting & associated processes.

As we grow there is an increasing need for an FP&A - Opex Manager to handle and own all aspects of the monthly business forecasting, planning & budgeting, and financial analysis relating to operating expenses, to assist stakeholders in making informed business decisions.

Reporting to the team's lead, this role will be pivotal and will be responsible for budgeting, forecasting and analytical processes that support Canva’s financial health and business strategy.

What you'll do

Bringing clarity to chaos across forecasting: Building and owning the planning and forecasting framework (seasonal and annual) for all operating expenses and cash flows, to identify, document and drive a rolling forecast process that is collaborative, balances business goals with desired financial outcomes, and is delivered in an accurate and timely manner.
Navigating ambiguity: Gather information and context from various stakeholders, provide business updates and internal resources to derive and report on an accurate operating expense and cash flow forecast.
Narrating the numbers: Clearly and coherently communicating financial performance and anticipated future forecasts
Empowering your team: Building and developing a diverse and exceptional team
Deliver value: Continuously evaluate opportunities for enhancement of processes in order to maximise effectiveness and ensure seamless operation at scale.
