About this role

Language Manager, Arabic speaking (12-month contract) Dubai, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Company Description: Job Description: Join the team redefining how the world experiences design. Hey, g'day, mabuhay, kia ora, 你好, hallo, vítejte! Thanks for stopping by. We know job hunting can be a little time consuming and you're probably keen to find out what's on offer, so we'll get straight to the point. About the Role This is the Arabic language lead for Canva - the person who sets the bar for what great Arabic localisation looks and sounds like, across every surface and every market. You won't be translating generic MSA and calling it done. You'll be building a dialect-aware, market-specific approach that respects the way people in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and beyond actually communicate and embedding that thinking into everything from our vendor briefings to our QA standards. You'll own the Arabic language programme end-to-end: from defining our linguistic guidelines to reviewing output, managing external translators, and partnering with product teams to make sure localisation is considered early - not bolted on at the end. You'll be the subject-matter expert Arabic speakers at Canva turn to, and the person who makes the case internally for what good looks like. What you'll do Own Canva's Arabic language quality end-to-end - from defining standards to reviewing and approving localised content across product, marketing, and educational surfaces Build and maintain Canva's Arabic Style Guide and terminology glossary, covering MSA norms, dialect preferences by market, and guidance on Canva's tone
