The job
Architects work in Ontario
Ontario holds the largest concentration of architecture practices in the country, with firms of every size working across Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, Kitchener Waterloo and the smaller cities in between. Searches for architects in Ontario split between people planning a new build, owners renovating older housing stock, and developers who need drawings for permits. The paid search around these terms is contested by established firms and by design build companies bidding on the same phrases. Franchises play a smaller part here than in trades like plumbing, so most of the competition comes from independent practices and owner operators. The demand is steady and it is spread across the province rather than sitting in one downtown.
