Gentlemen:
I would like to apply for a Construction Management position within your company. Enclosed is my resume for your review.

Some of the positions I have held range from Project Manager, Assistant Project Manager, Superintendent, Purchasing and Estimating Manager, Product Development Manager, Safety Director, and Architectural Draftsman. I have also worked closely with other departments such as Customer Service, Information Technology, Accounting, and Land Development. Having worked in such a wide variety of positions, and worked with various contractors and with many other departments, has given me a broad understanding of the operations within a Building Construction Company.

Some of the types of projects I have been involved in are Residential Condominiums, Single and Multi-Family Homes, Retail Space, Office Space, Warehouse Space, Manufacturing Facilities, Industrial Facilities, and Schools. These projects have been New Construction, Additions, and Renovations.
