Good Day,

My name is Steve Wilkerson and I am the Senior Facilities Engineer for the US Army

Chemical Weapons Destruction Site in Pueblo, Colorado. I have over 25 years of experience

i n Facilities Engineering and 15 years as a Facilities Manager, and 9 as a corporate

manager for a major electronics manufacturer with facilities across the United States and

Canada. I appreciate the opportunity to present myself to you and be considered for the

Facilities Manager position.

I have been with URS Engineering for several years now, working as the Senior Facilities

E ngineer for the Systemization, Startup and Operations of the 80 acre, 20 facility complex.

I have sincerely enjoyed my experience at Pueblo, although as a Lakeland Florida native, I

need to make a t ransition back to Florida to better support my aging mother.

I am a member of IFMA (International Facility Managers Association) and currently

working on the Facility Manager Certification which I can commit to obtaining within the

next 4-6 months. My last few years spent with URS has enabled me to gain a vast amount

of experience in many types of facility operations, including RCRA and Biological Labs,

Medical Facilities, Warehousing, U tilit ies, Processing, Office complexes and more.

Obviously, assistance in relocation would mean a great deal in helping me make this

decision, as well as a competitive salary, but my ultimate desire and need is for my wife and

I to return home and I feel this opportunity would be a perfect fit for both of us.

In closing, I have attached a letter of reference and my resume for your review and

consideration. Please consider my application and feel free to contact me at your

convenience, I am ready to do whatever it takes, and to assure and convince you that hir ing

me is the r ight decision.

Sincerely,

Steve Wilkerson
