LIFE AT II BY IV
OUR STUDIO:
Headquartered in multicultural Toronto, our studio is spread across two floors in a brick and beam loft space. Flooded with natural light, there is no shortage of inspiration between conversations with fellow designers, an extensive art collection, and libraries filled with inspiration. Our kitchen is always stocked with the best coffee, tea, sparkling water, and snacks.
PRIME LOCATION:
Based in Liberty Village, we are surrounded by the convenience of many great restaurants, coffee shops, and shopping options. Our prime location boasts accessibility to major transit lines (a 9-minute walk to the Exhibition GO Station, and less than 1 minute away from the King TTC line) for commuters, and our close proximity to the Gardiner Expressway saves hours of drive time through city traffic.
EMPOWERING OUR PEOPLE:
We value diversity in our team members and aim to create an inclusive space where everyone feels motivated, comfortable and inspired to do their best work. We invest in annual goal setting and performance reviews, work with designers on benchmarking and growth tracks to further their professional goals, and host leadership workshops. We dedicate time to professional development for technical skills, and who doesn’t love the opportunity for business travel? We go the extra mile.
CULTURE:
Every year, we organize fun events for the entire team. Last year, we hosted a drag brunch in honour of Pride Month, enjoyed a beach day in the summer, shared a five-course meal together at a Michelin-star restaurant to celebrate a great year, and many memories in between.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS:
Comprehensive group health insurance, a hybrid work schedule, summer hours, and bi-weekly virtual yoga sessions – just to name a few.
DOG-FRIENDLY WORKSPACE:
Pets contribute to a happy workplace! Our dog-friendly policy means you will often find a few furry friends roaming around the studio.
