To Whom It May Concern:

After reading the Office Manager job opening advertised in the Denver Post, I was immediately interested in the opportunity for this rewarding administrative position. My past work experience has provided me with the knowledge and versatility to successfully meet the all of the challenges of managing a small office.

For eight years, I was an office manager at a small, family-owned business where I managed accounts receivable and payable, payroll, and supervised two office assistants to maximize office productivity. I have extensive knowledge in QuickBooks, as well as Microsoft Excel, Word, Access and PowerPoint. Using this past experience, I can effectively manage XYZ Company’s bookkeeping, develop and maintain a customer database, prepare financial statements and supervise all other administrative activities as needed.

Outside circumstances required that I spend the past several years working part-time, so for the past three years I held a part-time administrative position at an electrical supply company. In addition to general filing and reception, the aspect I most enjoyed about this position was maintaining relationships with customers both in person and over the phone. Now I am interested in returning to a full-time, challenging position where I can utilize all of my past skills, from answering phones, to interacting with customers, to managing the entire XYZ Company’s bookkeeping system.

Please consider me for the Office Manager position. With my past experience and strong work ethic, I can bring knowledge and success to XYZ Company. I am available for an interview at your earliest convenience and can be reached by phone at (303) 555-8676 or email at mwilliams@hotmail.com. I look forward to hearing from you
