Dear [Mr./Ms./Mx.] [Hiring Manager’s Last Name],
My name is Lucy McKenzie, and I’m writing to express my interest in joining [Company] as the [Position Title]. With 7+ years of experience in the finance industry, I’ve consistently optimized cash flow, reduced costs, driven efficiency, and ensured integrity in finances by analyzing and resolving complex accounting, reporting, and regulatory issues.
As Controller at Bechtel Group Inc., I‘ve been responsible for leading the finance function for a company with over $100 million in revenue and 150+ employees. In this role, I’ve implemented innovative solutions that have streamlined financial reporting, improved regulatory compliance, and enhanced decision-making capabilities. Notably, I played a key role in driving the successful implementation of SAP ERP, which has significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of financial reporting.
As an Accountant at Fluor, I contributed to the financial health of the company by managing accounts receivable and payable for a company with monthly revenue of up to $25,000. I played a critical role in identifying a major discrepancy in monthly cash flow, which resulted in a cost savings of $47k for the company. Furthermore, I leveraged my expertise in financial modeling and spreadsheet software programs such as Microsoft Excel to develop complex financial models that enhanced the accuracy of financial forecasting.
I am confident that my expertise, experience, and accomplishments will enable me to make significant contributions to your organization’s financial goals and objectives. I look forward to discussing my qualifications further in an interview.
Sincerely,
Lucy McKenzie
