To: Human Resource/ Hiring Manager
I am pleased to submit my application for the Production Supervisor opening at your company. I have used this letter to briefly summarize why my application is worth attention.
I am excited by the opportunity to work with a company that can appreciate my seasoned
supervisory background and skills developed first in the United States Marine Corp. and continued over the pass Thirty Years. It takes many traits to make a good supervisor. Here are a few that I bring to your company: A passion for getting it done - The ability to adjust to change - Leading by example - teaching teamwork.
As an applicant with skills in project management through lean concepts for the purpose of continuous improvement, I have strong training and communication attributes. I have confidence that I am an excellent candidate for the role of Production Supervision. The company I work for hired me to start up their second shift operations. After moving to the shift with a new crew. I utilized my philosophy of strong team building which is safety first, and assuring that everyone follow the company's policies and procedures. And through continued coaching and training, we pushed for zero quality issues. When this philosophy was implemented, production efficiencies were obtained consistently. After this level of operation was achieved we continued to strive for improvement with a positive leadership style.
Thank you for taking the time to consider my application to join your team. I believe that I will be a major asset to your company if given the opportunity, I look forward to a personal interview.
