Dear Sir or Madame:
I am actively seeking full-time employment either as a construction superintendent or working foreman. I have 37 years experience in residential construction. Although I am licensed as a general contractor, I specialize in interior trim design and fabrication as well as custom cabinetry. Please consider me for any position that meets my qualifications. I am willing to relocate or travel; I own and maintain my own tools and can travel self-contained. Please see the attached resume for a complete description of my areas of expertise and qualifications.
I am proficient in reading blue prints, supervising subcontractors, ordering building materials, and maintaining safety and quality standards on the job site. I am self-insured, with workman’s compensation and general liability. In addition, I take pride in keeping projects on-budget and on-time, and enjoy meeting with the customer during the construction process. I would look forward to any opportunity to bring my experience and expertise to your team, and I feel very strongly that I could benefit your organization.
I am available for phone or on-site interview at fairly short notice, and could start immediately. Thank you for the opportunity to apply for any position, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
David Stocks
