Resume:

November *rd, ****

To Whom It May Concern:

I would like to take this opportunity to submit my resume for the Administrative Bookkeeper position advertised by your organization.

I have been employed in various positions for my previous employers including that of an Accountant/Office Manager.

As the Office Manager I was responsible for dealing with the administrative and operational side of the business. My duties included but were not limited to, purchasing and control of all inventories, all of the office equipment and resources, dealing with all vendors providing services to the business, facilities and warehouse management, employee management, and customer service issues.

My accounting responsibilities encompassed all areas including financial reporting, budgeting, invoicing, receivables and collections, payables, general ledger postings, purchase orders, bank reconciliations, payroll and all government reporting. I was responsible for all accounting functions up to and including the monthly financial statements and year-end functions.

My previous positions encompassed similar responsibilities to those I believe you would be looking for in your placement listing. I have used Business Vision accounting software for over four years and am extremely familiar with it.

I work well in a team environment; I am results-oriented and always strive to motivate those who work with me to do better. My level of proficiency with computers extends both to software and hardware, and I have worked with a number of computerized accounting systems including Business Vision and QuickBooks as well as MS Office programs such as Microsoft Excel, and Word.

If you feel the qualities I possess could be put to good use for your company, please contact me at my home number 289-***-****, cell number 647-***-****, or email address so that we can arrange an interview to discuss this further.

I look forward to hearing from you

Sincerely

Robert Brown
