To Whom It May Concern,

After viewing the position posted, I would appreciate you taking a look at my resume as many of qualifications you are seeking match my background and expertise. My goal is to continue to work at a company that has a caring heart and a focus on others.

Throughout my career, I have maintained the highest performance standards. My resume is diverse with positions that have allowed me to develop leadership skills in a variety of formats. As an assistant at Katun, I was able to successfully coordinate three different departments at the same time, including one department where the VP lived overseas. I excelled at streamlining operations, expense reporting, creating presentations for the board and working confidentially with all three departments.

While at Christ Presbyterian, I have managed a team of 15 staff and many more volunteers. This includes budgeting, expense reporting, interviewing, hiring, team management, and performance reviews. I’ve also had prior career experience in human resources and customer service.

Other demonstrated qualifications include:

an excellent background in all aspects of team management

presentation building and event planning

budget and expense management

extensive international and domestic travel planning

With excellent organizational and communication skills, a tremendous work ethic, and the ability to work well in both team and individual environments, I would welcome the chance to exceed your expectations. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Heather Augdahl
