About The Investor Relations Team
Investor Relations is a core function within our Finance team, sitting at the intersection of business, finance, and communications. The role involves gaining a deep understanding of Canva’s strategic path, competitive positioning, operational and financial underpinnings, and using that knowledge to build strong relationships with leading investors, research analysts, and bankers.
About The Role
We're building our Investor Relations function across Australia and the US. As Senior Manager, Investor Relations, you'll be a key member of a small, high-impact IR team, reporting to our Head of Investor Relations. You'll work closely with the Head of IR and a senior team member in Australia to run the engine behind our IR program: producing materials, managing processes, and supporting relationships to keep our investor communications sharp and consistent. This is a hands-on, executional role where you'll own deliverables end-to-end. You'll collaborate cross-functionally with FP&A, Accounting, Tax, Legal, Data Science, Growth, and Communications, and have direct exposure to senior leadership and the investment community.
