Re:
Dear Mr(s).___________:
In the financial arena for some time, I’m a qualified accounting professional who has worked in a number of key capacities, from staff to corporate accountant and controller and chief financial officer. I flourished regardless of the demands and expectations set upon me.
Couple this experience with countless financial seminars and training, along with my CPA license, and I feel I’m a perfect match for this position.
I’ve been in an accounting position my entire career. I’ve monitored over $60 million in yearly sales for several manufactured home businesses.
My skills span into the simplest and most complex tasks: operating procedures to staff management, tax accounting, internal auditing, accounts receivable, payables, and payroll.
This amount of experience ensures that I view your business from various viewpoints, allowing problem-solving to be performed on a deeper, more beneficial level.
KEY ACCOUNTING ABILITIES —
Cost Accounting & Analysis * Corporate & Employment Taxes * Employee Compensation
Benefits Financial Statements * Location Start-up * Ground-Floor Accounting
Multimillion-Dollar Operations * Profit Reports * Accounting Software * Design & Implementation
Additionally, I not only review and analyze the company’s finances but I also view the company for “financial wellness.”
I take great pride in ensuring that the company operates smoothly and flawlessly while improving upon in-house processes and procedures that will positively redefine the company’s financial standing. I intend to do this for your company, as well.
To discuss my qualifications further or to answer questions, please contact me at (XXX) XXX-XXXX or send an email to [email protected].
I look forward to discussing this opportunity with you.
Sincerely,
Jobseeker
