Re: Forklift Mechanic
Dear Sir /Madam,
I hereby apply for the job of a Forklift Mechanic for both propane and electric. I know I possess the necessary skills and experience you are seeking and would make a valuable addition to your company.
As my resume indicates, I possess more that 10 years of progressive experience in the preventative and corrective maintenance field. At my previous position as a Forklift Mechanic at Logistical Distribution and Services Limited I maintain, troubleshoot and provide preventative and corrective maintenance to the machines and equipment, keep accurate maintenance records and documents, follow safety procedures in accordance with company polices and support supervisors, team lead and operators to reach their daily targets. I was even trained in the US by Nissan Forklift in Chicago. Therefore, if your organization seeks an experienced Forklift Mechanic I am the right fit for the job.
My relevant qualification matches perfectly with your requirements and as such I believe I would be a great addition to your organization. Also, I noted with interest that your company offers stability a key attribute we have in common.
I have attached my resume for your review and look forward to speaking with you further regarding your available position.
Sincerely,
Milton Hamilton
