RE: Construction Project Manager Opportunity

To Whom It May Concern:

I have just become aware of the Construction Project Manager opportunity for one of your clients. I am interested in

learning more about the opportunity and exploring the potential fit, both for your client and myself. My education and

work background have been completely focused in the construction industry and I’ve had the opportunity to be involved

with multiple projects ranging in size from relatively small to contracts in the $100 million range. Through this

experience, I have developed a firm foundation of ‘what it takes’ to successfully execute projects, from conception to

completion, while maintaining budget, schedule, quality and safety. I strive to develop positive working relationships

with project stakeholders and team members while fostering an environment that emphasizes excellence to the client. I

believe in doing ‘whatever it takes’ to insure a successful delivery of a project.

As stated above, I am interested in exploring the opportunity that exists with your client. In the following two pages, I

have provided an updated resume for your consideration. I would be happy to provide professional references upon

request. Please take a look and feel free to contact me should you have any questions or would like to schedule an

interview. I can be reached via cell phone or email. Thank you, I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Chris Swenson
