Dear Mr. Smithers,
A friend recommended I take a look at the Fire Chief posting on your town’s website. I was impressed. My experiences as station captain match up with what your fire department is looking for. I am currently the fire chief for Engine 108 in City, State. My wife and I have been talking about moving to a smaller community for about two years. We both saw this as a great opportunity to have that and still allow me to maintain a growing career in firefighting.
As my resume shows I have the training certifications and concise understanding of public safety. I manage teams and programs maintain vehicles and equipment and remain ready for action. I know how to adjust an approach to emergency situations. It’s about being able to quickly analyze a situation and knowing the best ways to apply training manpower and resources to fit immediate needs. Putting it on the line is the only way to inspire team and community members to do the same. It is why I also speak in public venues about safety procedures and practices for protecting our communities.
I would love to bring that sensibility to your position of Fire Chief. Let’s sit down for an interview to discuss it more at your earliest convenience.
Best Regards,
Isla Cisneros
