NorthCo is an Ottawa-based renovation company specializing in kitchens, cabinetry, and siding. We're driven by a simple set of values - doing the right thing, real partnership with our clients and each other, a constant push to grow, and leading by example - and we live them while having a good time along the way. We're a tight-knit team that takes the craft seriously without taking ourselves too seriously. (Want a feel for who you'd be joining?

We're hiring a Kitchen Designer to join our design team as we keep growing. This is a full-time role for someone who blends real design talent with technical precision - the kind of designer who can sit with a client, understand their vision, and turn it into custom kitchen layouts, cabinetry drawings, and material selections that actually get built clean.
If you want a place where your skills are valued and your personality gets to shine, this is your lane.
