Dear Sir/Madam

REF: Administration Assistant

I am taking this opportunity to write to enquire about any administration vacancies you may have within your company.

For the past six years I have worked as an Administrator for a major construction company and I am now looking for a new position.

I am part of a team responsible for the day to day running of a very busy office. My main duties are maintaining a database of customers and suppliers, dealing with telephone queries, using a range of Microsoft packages and minute taking at meetings.

If you do not have any opportunities at present I would be grateful if you would keep this letter on file should an opportunity arise. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to hear from you in the future.

I would also be interested in any similar vacancies you might have.

I will phone next week to confirm my letter has been received safely.

Yours faithfully,

 

SUSAN STRONG
