Dear Hiring Manager,
I am submitting my resume for the Trust Accountant position you have listed on Glassdoor.com.
I have spent fifteen of the last sixteen years working full-time as Controller for a versatile investment company. Unfortunately due to the down turn in the economy my position was eliminated. I feel that my extensive experience in accounting and financial management will fit your company’s needs.
Recently I have been working for American Income Life Insurance Company as a life insurance salesman. I am doing this only until I can obtain a position back in my Accounting/Financial Management career.
Thank you so much for your time.
Best,
Ronald L. Issler
P.S. I would love the opportunity to discuss this position with you in detail, during a personal interview to demonstrate my knowledge and skills. I can be contacted by email at ***********@*****.*** or by phone at 504-***-****. Thank you in advance!
