Hiring Manager

Smart Business

1500 Gwinnett

Gwinnett County GA

Dear Smart Hiring Manager,

I would be a great addition to your finance team and have the skills necessary to be successful in handling

various finance tasks. I am a person with experience and a proven track record willing to make a long

term commitment in return for long term stability. This is the type of work relationship I come from and

am looking for, I find something good and stick with it.

Having worked in finance for the past 13 years I possess many of the qualities you are looking for. I have

extensive experience in accounts payable, accounts receivable, credit card reconciliation, payroll, and

expense reporting, as well as experience supporting the finance director, controller, CEO, EVP, and CFO of

my previous companies.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management and have worked for large and small companies the

last 30 years. My current employer has sold the business and I am on the search for a good fit for my vast

experience and caring personality.

I enjoy staying busy, moving the business forward and completing tasks correct and on time. I am a detail-

oriented critical thinker and ask questions to be sure I understand the nuances of a project. When I arrive

at the office I am open to any need of the business, there is no job too small. I do not sing but bring a

smile and positive attitude with me each and every day.

I appreciate your time, and thank you in advance for your consideration. Please let me know if you need

any further information in support of my application.

Sincerely,

Cheryl Birdsong
