This letter is to express my interest in the Production Manager position. Based on my experience in a manufacturing
environment serving as Team Coordinator and as Shift Supervisor, as well as the Six Sigma Green Belt Certification I
am currently receiving, I am confident that I would be a valuable asset to your team.
My resume highlights my knowledge, skills, abilities, and expertise within a Manufacturing Teaming Environment.
Throughout my career at General Dynamics I have had the opportunity to lead multiple problem solving initiatives as
Team Coordinator as well as Quality Coordinator. This has afforded me the chance to represent General Dynamics and
travel to various vendors, suppliers, and customers to address different quality and efficiency concerns .In one instance
General Dynamics saved an estimated $45,000 yearly due to costly down time created by a process flow problem.
I am very excited about the Production Manager position available. Thank you in advance for your time, and please do
not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I would appreciate the opportunity to review my qualifications
with you in more detail.
