About The Position

This role is built for a hands-on sales leader who thrives in a fast-moving environment and is excited to help shape what comes next as Canva scales. You’ll lead Canva Enterprise growth across North America, managing and scaling a team of Mid Market Account Executives to deliver against broader Enterprise revenue goals. From day one, you’ll lead from the front — immersing yourself in our product, customers, and sales motion, and setting the standard through execution. Over time, you’ll build and develop a high-performing, high-accountability team, putting the systems, culture, and processes in place to make success repeatable at scale. You’ll balance strong revenue ownership with deep customer empathy, extending Canva’s tradition of customer enthusiasm while building best-in-class SaaS sales practices. Partnering closely with Sales Development, Operations, Product, Marketing, and Talent, you’ll help deliver an exceptional end-to-end experience for Enterprise customers and define what world-class, AI-powered selling looks like.

Requirements

• People-first sales leader: You bring 3+ years of experience managing individual sellers in a market-leading SaaS business, including direct experience leading Mid Market teams.

• Fast-moving problem solver: You thrive in dynamic environments and are passionate about helping customers succeed with Canva. You enjoy digging into product details, uncovering real customer needs through rediscovery, and applying value-based selling to solve meaningful business challenges.
• Focused, impact-driven manager: You know how to prioritize effort where it matters most — reinforcing strong pipeline discipline, consistent prospecting, and high-quality discovery to drive sustainable revenue outcomes during periods of transition.
• Clear and confident communicator: You can translate complex concepts, data, and customer insights into concise, actionable guidance for sellers and cross-functional partners.
• Hands-on self-starter: You’re independent, organized, and approachable, with a willingness to roll up your sleeves to unblock deals, coach live opportunities, and keep momentum high.
• Humble operator with strong business acumen: You’re comfortable forecasting deals end-to-end on a weekly basis, regularly challenge your own assumptions, and are motivated by continuous improvement — for yourself and your team.
