Where and how you can work
Our flagship campus is in Sydney. We also have a campus in Melbourne and co-working spaces in Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide. But you have choice in where and how you work, we trust our Canvanauts to choose the balance that empowers them and their team to achieve their goals. We're open to anywhere in Australia.
About the Team
The Security Group is responsible for protecting Canva systems and data from information security threats. Our teams work together, and with other groups, to deliver preventive and detective controls and processes that reduce security risk. The group runs programs across Enterprise Security, Application Security, Risk Management, and Threat Detection and Response domains.
The Security Outreach team lives by the tenets of people-centric security - an understanding that people are at the centre of how risk is defined, prioritised, communicated and controlled. Our mission is to build secure cultures and behaviours across the entire organisation, supporting every team in how they engage with cyber security.
About the Role
This is a cross between a security educator and a program manager role. We don't take a compliance-first approach; we take a people-first one.
At the core of this role, you'll lead ad-hoc consulting and education engagements with business teams – embedding directly into their world, understanding how they work, identifying where security risk lives, and making practical, culturally sensitive recommendations to address it. Think of it as being a trusted security partner to teams who don't speak security natively.
Alongside this, you'll own and shape our Security Champions program – helping expand it beyond its engineering roots to reach the wider organisation, and building community-driven security knowledge at scale.
