  • Maintaining and enhancing system documentation and process mapping for Google Workspace.
  • Collaborate and partner with other System owners to build exposure and knowledge in other systems that are used at Canva

What we're looking for:

  • 5+ years of experience in Google Workspace administration and management with a keen eye for detail, optimisation and enhancements.
  • Experience using Python, Google Apps Script and Google APIs to build custom tools and solutions.
  • Previous experience as a high level System Administrator managing and supporting a variety of SaaS applications
  • Experience with Atlassian, Slack, Zoom at an admin level would be highly regarded.
