Dear Mr. Hanson,
I am writing in response to your online ad for a Purchasing Officer. I have attached my resume for your review and consideration and believe after taking a look that you’ll want to schedule an interview. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and am also a Certified Professional in Supply Management (CPSM).
In my current position as Purchasing Officer for a large manufacturing company I coordinate with user departments to identify needs that can be combined with other users to take advantage of that leverage to negotiate the best purchasing package with suppliers and vendors. My strong negotiating skills along with oversight of the bidding process has resulted in favorable vendor contracts for the company. In addition to the necessary administrative duties that are part of the job I also conduct regular competitor surveys to ensure we’ve getting the biggest bang for our buck. I understand the importance of team building and clear communication with staff and with user departments. Key to my success has been relationship building with vendors to ensure on-time delivery and resolution of delivery problems like damaged or incorrect goods.
I look forward to your call to discuss how I can add efficiency to your purchasing operation. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Felicity Weeks
