As a skilled scaffold builder with an outstanding background in successful business operations
and safety strategies, I am seeking to align myself with a progressive company that is poised
with strong growth and success. I am writing to you an application for a scaffold director/safety
representative position at your company. I am a goal driven employee and feel no job is too
difficult or impossible no matter the challenge. I am a quick learner with strong leadership skills,
who goes the extra mile and does whatever it takes to get the job done in a safe manner.
I would like a position that would challenge my skills and utilize my experience. I am
comfortable with the fast-paced projects and high-pressure settings. I enjoy a challenge and
recognize the value of teamwork and resourcefulness in achieving goals and solving problems. In
addition, the wealth of experience I can bring to an organization is considerable as a result of my
experience in construction. Some of my key strengths include:
• Exclusive experience in managing critical construction projects and company development
initiatives with the knowledge to balance the requirements for functionality, quality, and
timelines.
• The ability to enter new environments and begin to produce clear-cut results right from the
start with diverse management skills that are easily transported between different industries
and varied working environments.
• Proven ability to successfully analyze and capture an organization’s critical safety
requirements.
I would appreciate an interview to discuss the ways in which I could assist you in accomplishing
the goals for your company. I am confident that I will be an asset to your company base on my
qualified experience. Please feel free to contact me directly at any time. In the meantime, thank
you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Martin J. Farias
