Cover Letter: Finance Controller

Dear Sir/Madam,

Application for a Finance Controller

I have recently seen your advert for a Finance Controller and I am interested in applying for this role.
My background is in finance having worked in an accounts department for X years (if this is true) and I feel that I am now ready for a bigger role and challenge and ability to manage a department.

I have had some supervisory experience and feel that I could manage a department effectively.

I am a very organised person by nature and can stay calm when working under pressure. I also pay great attention to detail and would check and double check to make sure something right.

I have good GCSE’s grades in English, Maths and IT. I feel that I am a confident communicator and able to make rational decisions on my own initiative. I like to work in both a team environment and on my own initiative.

I have researched your company and was very impressed to see what the future looks like at your company and I would like to be a part of that.

I have enclosed my CV showing my detailed experience. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thank you in advance for reading my application.

Yours sincerely
