To whom it may concern:
I am writing to investigate the possibility of a position for superintendent/supervisor, following is a resume that I hope will interest you; I have been working in the Phoenix area as a superintendent since 1998. Attached is a list of jobs that include retail, warehouses, restaurants, public works and design builds from the ground up that range from $500,000 to $15,000,000, TI projects to $3,000,000. I started out as a commercial form carpenter with the local union in Phoenix, AZ in 1985 where I went through my apprenticeship and earned my journeyman certificate working on multiple and diverse projects in the commercial sector and heavy highway with contractors such as Kitchell, McCarthy, and numerous other large contractors. I have also worked in the office as assistant project manager helping with the bid process, change orders and contracts.
Sincerely,
Steven Buchanan
