To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing to you because, having worked in the Truck and Transport field for over 15 years, I am looking for growth opportunities and would like to be considered for your Equipment Manager position.
My current position as a Truck and Transport mechanic, and background has been very developmental and has given me a strong foundation for which I want to build. With having had my own business for a few years I’ve had to deal with all aspects from sales, to service and all while being professional.
With my background and exposure to very similar job requirements, I am enthusiastic about the position. I am hard working and proud of the quality of my work, and feel I would be an excellent fit and asset to you.
