To Whom It May Concern,
Over twenty years in the construction business has made me an expert in many ways. I
am very interested in the construction project manager position with your company.
I’ve worked as a manager of commercial construction for over sixteen years and am
well qualified with running jobs and managing employees and sub-contractors. Not
only do I understand the basics of construction, but my work experience has allowed
me to delve into certain aspects that many people have never had the opportunity to
explore.
I plan to take the skills and knowledge I’ve learned from my past jobs to compliment
your company with my knowledge; and to implement a system that works for
everybody.
Thank-you.
Sincerely yours,
James R. Nelms
