Re: Employment
Dear Prospective Employer,
I have earned a reputation for delivering excellent service and high-quality performance marks in my past employment. I take great pride in supporting organizational vision and the mission. I look forward to and welcome the chance to meet with you to discuss ways I can contribute to your business.
My background includes over 20 years in the corporate work environment operating at every level ranging from entry, advisory to training and management. In these positions I acquired skill sets that enabled me to lead and provide superior service to clients and customers. I was repeatedly recognized for excellence as a team leader and quality coordinator, selected by management for special projects and unique assignments supporting organizational goals. I recently served on a special team dedicated to serving military and veteran customers which I take great pride in as a military spouse.
I am a serving member of the Missionary Board providing support to the bereaved and those in need.
This board provides immediate support during time of grief and distress. In this, and all experiences and positions, my approach is with great care and professionalism with a mind set to see it through to completion.
My background and experience in service and support combined with an ability to manage programs and build relationships would be valuable to any organization looking for high performance employees. I truly look forward to speaking with you to discuss opportunities with your company. I can be reached at 215-***-**** or email @ ****.*******@***.*** to schedule a meeting.
