Dear Mr. Smart,
I read your online ad for an Accounts Payable Clerk and am attaching my resume for your review and consideration. I have an Associate’s Degree in Business Administration and have worked in exclusively in accounts payable for almost a decade.
In my current position with a real estate investment and operating firm I have numerous responsibilities. In determining vendor payment schedules I developed a system that avoids late payments and associated late fees. This system continues to save the company money as well as improving not only their credit rating but their reputation as well. I review and verify all expense reports and vendor invoices for proper coding and authorization before entering them into the system. Additionally I am responsible for maintaining the contractor 1099 files including proper and timely filing with the IRS. I understand the unavoidable crunch times and have always completed the monthly accounts payable reconciliation in time to assist with month-end closing.
I look forward to your call to discuss this interesting opportunity and what my extensive experience would bring to your organization’s accounting department. I can make myself available according to your schedule and will check with your office next week regarding the status of this open position. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Penny Wise
