About Zain Dahya:
I am a Canadian National, currently living in the United Kingdom with plans to move to Richmond Hill Ontario in the near future.
With my Bachelors and Masters degree, alongside five years of experience, I feel that I am a qualified candidate and very excited about the prospect of developing my career.
Since starting my career, I have been involved in a wide range of projects, which has exposed me to a variety of different sectors. I have worked with numerous different projects which have entailed me to use Lump sum and unit price contracts. I am familiar with the Canadian standard methods of measurement and can see how my UK experience is transferable to apply to in Canada.
Outside of my day-to-day work duties, I like to assist with achieving company objectives such as diversity goals and carbon reduction, this is something I would like to continue to do throughout my career.
Just to emphasise again, I will not require sponsorship for this role and I can provide evidence of Canadian nationality if required.
