Dear Sir/Madam,
I am a well-qualified experienced administrator; my last role was that of an Executive Administrator to the Director of Development of the Global Template Organization SABMiller plc.
I have an ability to grow within a role, handle responsibility and build positive relationships with work colleagues at all levels. My previous employer was very satisfied with my work rate, and I am confident that I can bring the same level of high performance to your company. Beyond that which is already mentioned in my attached cv, I am someone who knows how to set goals and achieve them, and have a proven track record of being able to conceive, develop & execute strategies. I feel certain that my strong administrative and analytical skills coupled with my ability to strive for perfection will be of immediate value to your company. I very much hope that you will look favourably upon my application by recognizing my enthusiasm, talents in the field of Global exposure and my future potential. I would dearly like to further discuss the scope of this position, with you in person, and would welcome the chance of a meeting. Thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Yours sincerely
Michelle Sivlal
