BOSA CONSTRUCTION - TITLE SPONSOR

About the company: 

 Over 50 years ago, after immigrating to Canada from Italy, Robert Bosa turned his early days as a local homebuilder into one of the most storied construction companies in Canada. Bosa Construction was built on the foundation of quality, commitment, and integrity. Today, we are proud that those values are the forefront of how we do business.

Throughout its history, Bosa Construction has completed a variety of structures including hotels, theatres, mixed-use developments, residential buildings, commercial buildings, and warehouses. Some of our notable projects include Highgate Village in Burnaby, Westwood Village in Coquitlam, Collingwood Village in Vancouver, Miramar Village in Whiterock, Paramount Place in Downtown Vancouver, and the YMCA in Downtown Vancouver.

We employ hundreds of committed craftsmen – some who’ve been with us since the company’s first days. Having this much expertise and history on every project brings tremendous consistency to our work and creates an internal standard that’s of the highest quality. Bosa Construction is always on the lookout for skilled labourers, apprentice carpenters, journeyman carpenters, finishing carpenters, surveyors, crane operators, and riggers. If you believe in our values and are ready to do amazing work, please contact us.
