The road to creating stunningly beautiful content begins with a single template, but the journey is made faster with the help of perfect and easily customizable designs that empower users to create the content they need.

Canva's templates team aims to build the world's best design marketplace with a library of designs that offer our users a wide variety of usable and dynamic content, and to do that, we need the help of talented designers that can create and curate amazing content, but also help pave the way for the future of our template library.

About the Project

Canva is on a mission to democratise design through the localisation of our products -- and one of the ways we're doing that is by making sure we have a library full of high-quality, market-bespoke contents for all of our key markets. It's not enough just to have content that is translated from English, we want to be sure that all users have access to content that reflects the design aesthetics and trends in their market.

Working closely with copywriters, illustrators, market growth specialists and localisation specialists, you'll be overseeing the end-to-end production rollout of the content library for this specific market.

Our template library needs a range of fresh, varied, and beautiful designs - so we're after self-motivated designers who would love to have room for creative freedom in answering briefs.

We're interested in engaging a Creative Lead based in Saudi Arabia on a 3-6 month project where you'll be creating a multitude of Canva assets including logos, posters, videos, presentations, Instagram stories, social media content (video and static), book covers, banners (video and static) and editorial content.

Responsibilities

Direct design on key template projects across the locale-specific projects

Work closely with a vibrant and friendly creative studio, directing design, photography and illustration. This is an opportunity to deliver a wide variety of creative campaigns, with freedom to influence design direction, and the chance to create elegant, on-trend designs every day.

Build our internal team to meet partner needs whilst inspiring and developing our talented freelancers to create high-quality print designs.

Brief a design team to create beautiful and usable animated and static templates

Brief and manage the asset creation process with our internal and external sources of imagery, music tracks, video footage, stickers, and animations – so that we have the best assets to work with
