COVER LETTER SAMPLE - SALES / RETAIL STORE MANAGER

Mr. John Maxwell
Building Materials Manager
The Home Warehouse
225 Industrial Road
Huntington, NY 11746

Dear Mr. Maxwell:

As a department supervisor for The Home Warehouse Building Materials Department in Commack, I was pleased to learn that there is currently an internal opening for a Sales Department Supervisor at the Huntington store, and would very much like to be considered for the position. As a first step in the application process, I have enclosed my resume for your review.

I bring with me a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management along with nearly five years of experience with The Home Warehouse in progressively responsible supervisory positions leading to Department Supervisor. In this capacity, I continue to prove myself as a skilled and knowledgeable professional capable of overseeing day-to-day front-end/back-end department management responsibilities in areas of sales, merchandising, customer service, staff training and supervision, inventory control, safety, and implementation of racetrack management and spy procedures. Combined, I am confident that my qualifications will make me an asset to the continued success of The Home Warehouse.

I would welcome the opportunity to meet for an in-depth interview. If you should require additional information, my personnel file, which includes excellent performance evaluations, can be obtained from Corporate Human Resources. Thank you in advance for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,



Timothy Lipton
