Our employees are empowered to make decisions and participate in creative ways; this way of thinking contributes to the reason we’ve won 25+ awards including 2 national awards. We don’t believe in just one way of thinking and this philosophy over the years has fostered confidence and trust within our teams. We never fail to take responsibility for our actions either. At Zenterra, we value inclusivity and honest communication. We don’t shy away from difficult conversations, whether you have something to say, or we have something to say.
GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
We enable our employees to take charge of their careers and provide them with the opportunity to do the kind of work that amounts to something meaningful. After all, your growth means we grow too. You can expect to learn about things beyond your chosen focus. Zenterra has several exciting condo and townhouse projects in a pipeline extending well into the 2030’s.

 We raise the roof. So to speak.
