Cover Letter: Accounting Technician

Dear Sir/Madam,

Application for an Accounting Technician (Job reference if known)

I have recently seen your advertisement for an Accounting Technician role and I would be very interested to apply for this role.

My previous experience has included being involved in recording receipts and payments, using computerised accounting systems, handling company expenses, processing invoices etc. I have had a very varied role and thoroughly enjoy working within a finance environment.

I am interested in this role and would like to further my career and education and be a qualified Technician and do my Accounting qualifications. I have worked alongside my Manager and been involved in Audit inspections and this is something I enjoyed as I am a very organised and methodical person who pays great attention to detail.

I am a great team player but can also work well on my own initiative and I am very keen to learn as much as I can to be valuable to my employer. I have always had a good background in Maths during my education and would like to continue with the career I have chosen.

Having researched your company, I feel that I have some good transferable skills that would be of interest to you.

I have attached my latest CV for you to look at, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will be happy to answer anything you may want to know.

Thank you for reading my application and I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely

NAME SURNAME
