Dear Sir/Madam
I am writing to express my interest in securing retail manager position at Econet Telecom Lesotho. I am an insurance sales consultant at FNB Lesotho, specializing in selling Life and Short term insurance to retail businesses and clients. I come from a solid technical background with a strong interest in business and a passion towards strategy. My area of focus and interest varies from quantitative analysis to project management.
I have maintained a strong sales portfolio through a well-balanced program at FNB Lesotho, which is not only very analytical and technical by nature but also helps to build leadership and team building qualities. I am extremely impressed with company’s approach to strategy consulting, especially within the Business Development and Innovation practice areas. I believe my academic background, business knowledge and industry experiences have provided me with the credentials needed to thrive as a retail manager at Econet TelecomLesotho.
Prior to Insurance sales consultant, I worked as an external sales consultant in the same company, primarily resolving strategic issues related to the market share. I gained solid research, analytical and problem solving skills while working as a customer sale and service representativein the very same company, thus making me more suitable for retail manager position. My background in generating innovative ideas and strategies to increase sales has provided me with a deeper understanding of multifaceted problems that companies encounter in their daily operations. Moreover, because of my work experiences, I fully understand how important it is to have great team dynamics in today’s multi-disciplinary business environment. However, it is through strategy consulting that I can use my analytical aptitude and creative problem solving skills to their fullest. I strongly believe that consulting is a discipline that will force me to view problems not only from the client’s standpoint but also from a marketplace, best practices and “think out of the box” point of views. I would appreciate the opportunity to interview with Econet Telecom Lesotho to clearly express my interest in this position. Please find enclosed my CV for your review. I can be reached via email at ****************.****@*****.*** or by phone at +266-******** or +266-********. I enthusiastically look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours Faithfully
