Dear Prospective Employer:
I am a very organized, detail-oriented accountant seeking to continue my career
within your organization. Enclosed is my resume for review at your convenience.
My most recent experience was working for a small landscaping and irrigation company
which also had a retail outlet. Previous to that, I was the Controller for a large title and
escrow company. I have extensive experience in the construction industry working with
homebuilders and subcontractors. I also possess experience in the gaming and
non-profit environments. My expertise lies in the area of financial accounting but I have
also successfully dealt with cost accounting, auditing and tax preparation.
In addition to my undergraduate degree in Accounting, I also possess a Masters Degree
in Business Administration. For three years, I taught undergraduate business courses
in the areas of Accounting, Economics, Finance, Tax, Marketing and Management.
Although not listed on my resume, I have two years experience in the healthcare
industry as Finance Director for Uvalde County Clinic from 1988 to 1990. This facility
was a non-profit organization providing medical services to the indigent and
low-income populations. The operation was funded through grants from the federal
government, the state of Texas and Uvalde County, as well as private donations.
In this position, I was responsible for all accounting functions (A/P, A/R, Payroll, etc.),
grant applications and management of grant funds, budget preparation and
variance analysis. I supervised two clerks - medical records and medical billing.
I believe myself to be a good manager and motivator of people as evidenced by my
supervisory experience and teaching capabilities. Although I can only briefly describe
my qualifications on paper, I would be happy to meet with you in person to discuss
my skills in greater detail.
Give me the opportunity to prove that I can be a valuable asset to your firm. Thank you
for your time and consideration and I hope to hear from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
Lee G. Wallace
