Dear Employer,
I am a transportation industry professional with experience managing and maintai
ning light, medium and heavy-duty truck fleets. Although I have been successful
in my current position, I am eager to make a permanent move back to my hometown,
St. Louis, Missouri.
Having started my career as a technician and working my way up though the indust
ry, I have acquired a broad knowledge base. This experience has given me a clear
understanding of how to develop a skilled and performance driven staff of profe
ssionals. Besides my team building skills, I am accomplished at cost management
and providing quality customer service in a fast paced environment.
My experience includes establishing and managing vehicle maintenance programs, v
ehicle acquisition and disposal, and expense budgeting. I have also developed sy
stems and procedures for asset management, supply purchasing, warranty recovery,
and efficiency improvement.
In addition to having strong computer skills, I have successfully championed two
major maintenance software system conversions and implementation. Most recently
, through collaborating with vendors and manufacturers, I developed an online co
mputer based technician-training program. These are a few of the skills, experie
nces and qualifications I can contribute to support the success of your company.
Enclosed for your review is my resume detailing my work history and responsibili
ties. Your confidentiality is appreciated.
Please feel free to contact me for further discussion. I can be reached via emai
l as listed above to arrange an interview at a mutually agreeable date and time.
