About Zain

Thanks for visiting my profile! I am based in Toronto, Canada and am currently in an operational leadership role at Valsoft (vertical market software acquirer; mid-market PE), where I focus on P&L management and value creation initiatives across a few companies in our portfolio. Before this, I worked at Google (partnerships, operations, business development), and started my career in management consulting at Deloitte. I consider myself a lifelong learner, and mentorship - both as a mentor and mentee - has been a critical part of my career journey. I attribute a lot of my success to the people around me who offered to lend a helping hand, and I hope to support others in the same way through this platform--whether that's with navigating career transitions, prepping for interviews, or crafting your story. My coaching style is honest, personable, and actionable. I offer 1:1 coaching for navigating career transitions, interview/resume prep, and general insights applicable to the industries I have had the privilege to work in thus far (strategy consulting, big tech, vertical market software). I am also open to working with you to develop a tailored package if you have something else in mind. Feel free to schedule an intro chat to see if there is something I can help with and if I am the right coach for you!
