Careers · Ottawa

Build a career, not a job.

We hire carpenters who want to be carpenters in ten years. Bring the fitness and the curiosity — we'll teach you the rest.

Long-term path

We'd rather train one carpenter for ten years than hire ten for a season. Apprentices grow into leads; leads grow into project managers.

Paid learning

Time spent learning a new system on site is paid time. Tickets and certifications (working at heights, first aid) are on us.

Owner on site

Aaron is on every job. Questions get answered the day you ask them — not next week.

Aaron and Jess — owners of Westwood Carpentry

Who you'd work with

Owner-operated since 2018

Westwood Carpentry is small by design. We're fully insured ($2M liability), WSIB covered, and our work is backed by a 10-year structural warranty. The owner is on every site — which means a clear line of feedback both directions.

You don't need to know everything yet. You do need to want to learn, show up reliably, and care about doing it right.

Always hiring the right person

We don't wait for a posting to find good people. If carpentry is the career you want, we want to hear from you — whether we're actively looking or not.

Apply anytime — we read every application.
