As a winner of Canada’s Best Diversity Employers for thirteen years, the City of Ottawa is committed to reconciliation, equity and cultural transformation. We value a diversity of minds, perspectives and lived experiences to shape and lead the City’s workforce and respond to needs in our community.  

We are ultimately a service organization. From infrastructure improvement initiatives to youth outreach programs, our goal is to serve residents and create meaningful change in our city. 

The City is a long-standing leader in equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging in the workplace, and is one of the few municipalities in Canada with strategies advancing equity for women, gender diverse and racialized persons. The City of Ottawa values employee-led initiatives that help to create a fair, respectful and inclusive workplace, and is proud to support our affinity groups, which allow people with shared identities and their allies to connect, network and support one another. Affinity groups help promote equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging by reducing isolation, strengthening community and creating opportunities for growth and collaboration. 

We strive to be an employer of choice, to attract and retain diverse and talented people who represent the community we serve, while providing an exceptional employee experience through each stage of your career journey.
