Bio
Kiran Chandapu
I have had opportunity working with Praveen in Zinier, he is one of the best facility manager that i know; he was always available whenever we needed him and the way he had handled the situation for Zinier after-effect of covid & lock down is really commendable. He is a great asset for any company that he will would work for.

Praveen has been an instrumental part of Zinier India Office Operations, from the initial construction and set up of the office, to day-to-day management of the office and pantry including dealing with multiple vendors. An approachable and helpful individual by nature, he has built up a strong rapport within the Zinier team. In addition, Praveen has consistently sought to improve himself while at Zinier, taking on courses to help futureproof his skillsets. He will be an asset to any team who is lucky enough to land him as an employee.
