RE: Project Manager / Operations
Dear Hiring Manger,
As a self-driven operations manager with extensive experience in managing multiple large-scale, new construction projects, and a proven record of accomplishments in bringing about efficiency improvements, I believe I offer an expertise that would be of immediate benefit to your company. With a hands-on approach, strong leadership skills, and a focus on achieving operational excellence as my core strengths, I would like to explore the possibility of putting my knowledge and skills to work for you.
I am experienced in all aspects of project development, execution and renovations in a diverse range of $45+ million dollar construction projects. I deliver solid leadership and management skills, develop superior management teams, and possess a well-respected reputation as being a good manager who people turn to for answers. I am a strong negotiator and collaborator with municipalities, developers, suppliers, and contractors, in cooperation with several operational divisions.
My success in achieving results has been defined by my progressive mind-set, sound problem-solving skills, decision-making ability, and effective follow-through techniques. Equally important is my passion for team work. My open and inclusive management style and my commitment to training and developing staff arise from my belief in teamwork. I feel strongly that staff members are an intrinsic part for the success I have had in achieving goals.
With this combination of skills and traits to offer, as well as a solid track record behind me, I am confident I can produce the same, if not better results for you as well.
Thank you for your time in reviewing my qualifications and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
John Beam
