To Whom It May Concern:
I would like to introduce myself, Jon B. McLaughlin and I would like to be considered for a Construction Project Manager or Superintendent Position advertised. I have twenty-four years of commercial construction experience with nineteen years of management and site supervisory experience. I have performed as a Project Manager and as a Superintendent and often have successfully performed both duties simultaneously. My experiences as a Designer, Project Manager, Superintendent, General Contractor, Owner, and Subcontractor are unique and allow me to assess, evaluate, and efficiently manage projects and to proactively identify and remedy potential problems. Further, these experiences make me extremely competent in all phases of construction. My experience, knowledge, management skills coupled with my work ethic make me a valuable asset to any team. I have been praised by my subordinates, coworkers, and superiors for my knowledge, skills and work effort and in fact received a perfect score on my last evaluation from my Regional Manager. I was informed that my projects were the best managed, smoothest ran and most profitable projects for Premier.
I am a seasoned manager and my projects are always clean, safe, and concise, managed and communicated well and most importantly on time and under budget. In fact my last project a four story, 100 unit Comfort Suites hotel was completed on time and 8% under budget.
My wife and I have a home in West Fargo, ND and presently reside in Prescott Valley, AZ. Our children are raised so we view ourselves as mobile and are willing to relocate. My salary requirements are negotiable.
My Resume is attached highlighting my credentials. I will forward my References and Project List upon request. I look forward to discussing my qualifications with you in more detail.
Sincerely,
Jon B. McLaughlin

Summary
A goal orientated and results driven manager with extensive experience, diverse skills, professional management style, proven leader, with planning, communication, organizing, and problem solving skill matched by few. I have worn many hats in the construction industry, (designer, project manager, superintendent, general contractor, and subcontractor) and I believe the adage ‘Midwest work ethic’ is real. My Midwest work ethic and vast experiences make me a valued asset to any company and allow me to succeed in any endeavor. On time and on budget is a recurring theme on my projects with construction standards at a very high level. One of my mottos is ‘Success is achieved when expectations are realized; Excellence is achieved when expectations are surpassed’. I strive for excellence in everything that I touch and place my name on and would like to bring this equation of proven success to your company.
