- File and document management: Assisting the team with file management, coordinating electronic signatures, proofreading documents and updating the team’s internal resource pages
- General operational and billing support: Helping to triage Legal help desk queries and with the management of e-billing software, including liaising with external counsel on invoice requirements.
- Internal and external meeting preparation, mail support and helping to organise team activities, such as organising travel arrangements and trip itineraries, for team celebrations and off-sites.
You're probably a match if;
- You have experience in patent and/or trade mark administration gained from a law/IP firm or in-house role
- You’re proactive with a bias for action and getting things done
- You have excellent communication skills and high emotional intelligence

- You’re a natural collaborator who thrives on bringing people together and loves to be the glue to the team, bringing positivity and enthusiasm to all parts of the role
- You’re looking for a role to gain exposure to interesting legal work and contribute to Canva’s growing global IP portfolio
