Back in , Manila was the first place outside of Australia that Canva put down roots - with a small but mighty team of just seven people. Fast-forward to today and we have over Canvanauts in the Philippines, each one playing a big role in bringing our mission to life. And from Canva swag, to health insurance plans that you can use from day one, our local benefits are designed to empower you to thrive.
This means that when you join Canva, there are plenty of opportunities to grow and have huge impact. Our campus office in Makati City in metro Manilla is designed to empower you to thrive. Our team love its warm and welcoming energy and eye-catching murals showcasing local culture. One of the ways we foster connection and community on campus is by connecting over amazing food, prepared by our in-house chefs. From Korean BBQ, to hotpots and steak stations, we love to come together to connect over delicious meals.
Our strong relationships, empowered by moments like these, are a part of what creates a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to share their ideas.
Today, Customer Happiness remains our biggest team in Manila. There are the skilled Canvanauts using creative problem-solving to resolve issues for customers, and get them back on track designing - fast. We also have Design teams in the Philippines, a growing Sales team, plus Canvanauts working across a number of other areas, like People and Operations. Warmth, hospitality, a good time, and great food are just some of the most commonly used phrases I've heard people describe visiting the Manila campus for the first time.
What I love most about the Manila campus is there's a true sense of community, creativity, and character - no matter how big we grow! Canva Philippines has a unique blend that combines Canva's global vision with the rich heritage and warm spirit of the Philippines. Where our culture, values inclusivity, belonging is celebrated and everyone is encouraged to bring their whole selves to work.
