What You’d Be Doing In This Role
We’re looking for a Senior Creative Specialist to help shape how Canva shows up in Mexico, leading our strategy across performance and brand.
On the performance side, you’ll drive our work on TikTok, Meta, YouTube, and Pinterest, uncovering insights, analyzing what’s working, and developing new concepts and creative directions. You’ll also help shape how Canva shows up more broadly in Mexico, guiding strategy for product launches, partnerships, and brand moments that matter.
You’ll work closely with our Creative Director and marketing leadership to build the strategic foundation for our campaigns, and collaborate day-to-day with a talented team of designers, motion artists, and editors to bring bold, thoughtful, effective ideas to life.
This is a role for someone who is just as obsessed with creativity as they are with data and knows how to use both to create work that connects and campaigns that people want to watch.
