Familiarity with green building initiatives is considered an asset.

Why Join Us?

At Zeidler, you’ll be part of a nationally respected architectural practice with deep Canadian roots and a legacy of award-winning work across sectors - from civic landmarks and community spaces to advanced research and workplace environments.

We foster a collaborative, inclusive studio culture that values creativity, accountability, and design integrity.
