Content moves Canva, and ensuring our content is a driver of growth is crucial. Just as we invest in strong business, marketing, sales, and product leaders in our priority markets, we need an equally strong voice in content. As a Country Content Strategy Lead, you’ll partner closely with the Country Manager to ensure Canva has the right strategic content from your country (or countries), owning content as a growth engine and adapting strategies to support MAU, retention, and revenue impact. You’ll work closely with the Country Design Lead to deliver content that drives business outcomes. You’ll also champion local relevance and trends that make international users feel Canva is for them, and work closely with country teams (SEO, Localisation, Creators, Product, Marketing) and regional stakeholders to ensure local content delivers high value and measurable impact. You’ll be coached and supported by a Regional Content Strategy Lead, who will drive content strategy across the region.
- 3-5+ years of experience in content strategy, regional business strategy and operations, partnerships, or similar roles within high-growth content, media or marketplace global technology companies. - A deep understanding of content, trends, and aesthetics in your market (or markets), with a pulse on what resonates with local users. - A proactive, solutions-driven approach, capable of balancing strategy with hands-on execution. - Exceptional stakeholder management skills, with the ability to align cross-functional teams across regions. - Experience working in fast-moving, dynamic environments, comfortable with ambiguity and change. - Strong analytical skills to assess content performance and inform strategy adjustments. - A track record of successfully managing production workflows, partnerships, and/or supporting and activating local creators. - Language skills and cultural knowledge relevant to your geographic market, with ability to work effectively across different time zones.
- The ideal candidate possesses analytical skills and cultural curiosity, capable of shaping content strategies suitable for the Japanese market. Additionally, we welcome those who can identify opportunities to scale successful initiatives through reproducible systems, AI-driven workflows, and strong partnerships.
