EXPERIENCED MILLWRIGHT

Dear Hiring Manager,

It is with great interest that I submit to you my application and interest for a Millwright position with your company. Having spent my career as Millwright working in sawmill and chemical environments and I am excited to extend my skills and experience to this position. During the last 20 years working with Chemtrade Logistics as a Millwright, I have worked with, repaired, maintained and rebuilt sophisticated and complex equipment and I have acquired full awareness of chemicals and safety protocols. My position for the most part allowed the independence and responsibility of running my own plant, however during shutdowns I would oversee small crews of 3-7 tradesmen depending on the size of the rebuild to complete regular preventative maintenance on all mechanical equipment according to established schedules and procedures.

In addition to what is detailed in my resume, please consider the following highlighted skills and experience:

Operate in accordance with health, safety, and fire prevention regulations and practices

Troubleshoot, fabricate, repair and install mechanical equipment and parts

Inspect and examine machinery and equipment to detect and investigate irregularities and malfunctions

Read blueprints, diagrams and schematic drawings to determine work procedures

Collect analyses and recommend appropriate action with vibration analysis diagnostics Throughout my career as a Millwright, I am extremely safety oriented, ensuring all procedures, standards and compliance measures are met. My mechanical abilities have been utilized on equipment such as pumps, conveyors, hydraulics, compressors and many other mechanical systems. Excellent communication skills have provided me with the ability to work collaboratively with coworkers and management. As my cover letter and resume can only provide a small picture of who I am as a worker and a person, I welcome the opportunity to discuss my full potential, work values and qualities I bring with me. Sincerely,

Robert Richards
