Dear Hiring Manager:

It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application for the position advertise. As a Facilities manager & procurement professional with over 8 years’ experience, I know my diverse skills and qualifications will make me an asset to your team.

As you will see from the attached resume, I’ve built my career in a variety of roles and industries. I’m not only used to wearing many hats, I sincerely enjoy it; I thrive in an environment where no two work days are exactly the same.

In addition to being flexible and responsive, I’m also a fanatic for details and problem solving. One of my recent projects involved coordinating and managing a facilities department of a hotel and body corporates in Camps Bay and Hermanus in the Western Cape and a goldmine in Uganda where I managed and ran projects and also manage over 100 staff, sourced and purchase all stocks and arranged shipping and transport to and from site. I also managed the wellbeing of all staff, including food, accommodation and travel. I managed site budgets and formulated spreadsheets and presentations for the company. I believe in applying this same level of attention to detail to tasks as visible as prepping the materials for a top-level meeting and as mundane as buying a bag of sugar.

Last but certainly not least, I want you to know that I’m a passionate, hardworking diligent individual always committed to the task and take ownership of what I do. 

In closing, I am thrilled at the possibility of being involved in this project. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you.

Warmest regards,

Elandre Geldenhuys
