Subject: Construction Superintendent position.
Dear Hiring manager:
I am submitting this cover letter with my résumé to be considered for the position mentioned above. I am pursuing a full-time position but can accommodate a part-time or contract position. I’m confident that my broad range of alternative energy and efficiency, along with my attention to detail and timeliness, will meet your needs.
Currently I own a general contractor business (license # 898255), doing mostly residential and commercial remodel work. I currently hold my California General B Contractor’s license and C-46 solar license. I am a certified advanced green building professional, with an emphasis on alternative energy and resource conservation. In addition to my contracting business, I also perform repair, installation and maintenance of complex industrial environmental groundwater and wastewater treatment systems. I have contracts with environmental consultants, to perform as the health and safety manager for large scale DOE/DOD government construction projects.
Prior to starting my own business I had acquired 17 years of experience, exclusively in environmental consulting, industrial remediation systems development. A large portion of my time was spent doing environmental construction, working at a level of Field Operations Manager on a broad range of industrial sites. I have a great deal of experience with health and safety compliance, management of large-scale construction projects, report writing and regulatory compliance. My responsibilities ranged from Phase 1 site assessment to installation and operation of multi-million dollar groundwater remediation systems. My unique combination of project and field management experience provides my clients with superior service and value.
As you will see from my résumé, I have a great deal of experience in handling various construction projects and have been instrumental in the development and implementation of new technologies and procedures. I have strong organizational and communication skills. Through my experience, I have developed a broad network of contractors, consultants and vendors that can enhance the efficiency of the projects I am involved in. I am a detail-oriented, hard working, computer literate and innovative person.
Please contact me at (925) 595-1879 [daytime / evening] or gsm1[at]pacbell.net. Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Greg S. Mason
