3K Consulting
Dear Derek Edwards,
Seven years of extensive experience including a management role in the retail industry coupled
with a strong academic background in accounting and finance at the Ted Rogers School of
Management makes me an excellent candidate for the Accounting Administrator position at 3K
Consulting.
Through my studies in the Honours Commerce program, I have gained a thorough understanding
of accounting principles, audit procedures and taxation. Intense group work has enhanced my
interpersonal and communication skills, as well as my ability to multi -task. In order to maintain a
high level of productivity, efficiency, time management and a strong work ethic and organization
are essential. My diverse work experiences at Canadian Tire have allowed me to develop these
skills to better serve customers and supervise my team. In retail, customer focus is our number
one priority in order to ensure exceptional customer service and anticipate future customer needs.
While managing a team of ten employees, I developed my leadership skills ensuring that
expectations from senior management were not only met but exceeded. Targets were achieved by
working as a team and effectively examining events and problems to generate optimal and timely
solutions. Balancing work and school simultaneously has given me the unique opportunity to
perfect my time management skills and maintain a high level of work ethic even under pressure.
I look forward to meeting you to discuss how my skills, experience and personal qualities will
contribute positively to the Accounting Administrator position at 3K Consulting.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Denzil D Lima
