Dear:
Immediately Available: Experienced Facilities Manager with a Passion for Customer Service!
I have been a facilities manager for years. One of the most important and difficult lessons I've learned during this time is how to create a high-quality working atmosphere for the group of employees I supervise. This area is not only where I excel as a facilities Supervisor of Buildings and Grounds, but it is also the area I most enjoy. As a facilities manager, I love to get results whether it's hiring, training, or designing incentive programs for employees. If I am organizing and focusing a group of people, I am not only doing what comes naturally to me, I am also doing what I most enjoy. So it also gave me extra incentive to apply for this position. I would like the opportunity to discuss this position with you in detail, during a personal interview. I can be contacted at {319-***-****} to make arrangements.
"This place runs by its great people The biggest accomplishment I've had is to find great people Sincerely,
Ronald D. Benner
P.S. Facilities Manager is more than a job to me it's my philosophy in life; how to bring people together in a positive way that maximizes their potential thank you.
