To whom it may concern:
I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this cover letter, as I hope that I meet and exceed your expectations as a potential candidate for the position that you have listed. Please keep an open mind due to my experience in the various fields of business with emphasis and strengths in Information Technology will benefit your organization. I am an accomplished, results-driven leader in business with a strong background in management and Information Technology. I have a proven track record of turning around a struggling IT MSP companies and departments and watching IT change and evolve with proper structure, processes, intelligent direction and management. I have managed multi-million-dollar infrastructure I.T. projects. Ambitiously lead team members with confidence and encouragement. Exceeded expectations and reduced costs in all IT departments. Anyone can make a resume look good, I will show you and let my knowledge and experience speak for itself. I am willing to be tested on my knowledge and expertise. I take my profession and skillset seriously and I am proud of my success. Being a responsible VP of Information Technology, as well as a Senior Systems/Network Administrator/Engineer, lead to an understanding of time management and communications among staff, vendors, contractors and customers. On the technical side, I grew as a manager by leading a team of highly specialized IT professionals in supporting and integrating the contractors and the new systems within their new structured IT environment. As you grow and expand, you experience something called WISDOM. I learned more about internal politics as I was hired to transform and save the IT department from an internal implosion. There was great empathy and compassion when I was asked to relieve the current management. I am getting ready to resign from ASNET CORP and it's hard for me and everyone there, but I am ready for change and a new position and adventure. With my experience and life opportunities learned, I would be honored to bring this knowledge to your organization. Again, I thank you for your time in considering me for this opportunity you have available.
Respectfully Submitted,
Stephen L. Spencer
