Sub: Any Suitable Position
With more than 30+ years’ experience in the Advertising Industry’s client servicing,
media, creative, production, consumer and public relations, I wish to offer my diverse
expertise to compliment your team and further enhance company’s business
development.
During my tenure as Senior Account Director and Project Manager, I have had the
privilege and honor to train a number of High School and University students who
had come for orientation on a school project.
Additionally, I took the initiative to assist creative department with writing advertising
copy and press releases, supervising print and production, organizing and executing
consumer promotions, contact media and suppliers to negotiate bookings and rates as
well as play a supportive role when a team member reports sick or goes on annual
vacation.
My high degree of motivation and discipline was recognized by my previous employer
who quickly promoted me to position of greater responsibility, not only rated me No. 1
employee in the entire network but also prized me as an all-rounder and a solution
finder.
While I thank you in advance for giving me an opportunity, I sincerely look forward to
receive your favorable response, I remain,
With best regards
Frank Monteiro
