Hi, we’re J5.
We shape future products, services and experiences.
Canada’s leading innovation and design firm.
Our consultants are experts in modernizing legacy systems, outdated processes, and disrupting existing ways of working that are no longer useful or relevant.
Unlike traditional consulting firms, we start with the customer and then works backwards. Design starts with an understanding of unmet needs, identifying where experiences break down, then imagining solutions that will deliver better outcomes for people.
Over time, we can embed design as a repeatable capability, so internal teams can continue to improve products, services, and experiences as expectations and priorities evolve.
A KINDER, MORE BEAUTIFUL FUTURE.
A KINDER, MORE BEAUTIFUL FUTURE.
J5 partners with organizations who believe their services can improve lives at scale, strengthen communities and contribute to a kinder, more beautiful future.
We work with leaders responsible for essential services and public good such as healthcare, government, and purpose driven institutions in the private sector that are navigating complex transformations.
Together, we focus on what matters most, reducing friction across customer journeys and internal systems, evolving services so people can access the support they need, when they need it.
Industry Expertise

J5 partners with private sector organizations that are ready to transform the way their people work and the way their technology supports them. While many businesses invest in HR and IT solutions, few take the time to understand how these services are truly experienced by employees and end users. That’s where we come in.
We help HR and IT teams shift from system-centered to human-centered service delivery, bringing clarity to complex processes and creating experiences that feel intuitive, supportive, and empowering. Through research, co-design, and prototyping, we uncover the real needs and pain points in employee and IT journeys, then work closely with internal teams to design services that are easier to use, more connected, and aligned with strategic goals.
-
We transform complex, processes into efficient, digital solutions that are accessible, scalable and inclusive for all.
Our design-led approach ensures these changes are sustainable and user-friendly so government can be viewed as a trusted service provider increasing user adoption and satisfaction with citizens.

Non-profits are on the front lines of addressing society’s toughest challenges, but limited resources and traditional service delivery models can hinder their impact.
J5 partners with non-profits to rethink how they engage donors and co-design services in collaboration with the vulnerable communities they serve, ensuring that their efforts have a meaningful, lasting effect.
