Dear Recruiter:
As a highly skilled Executive Operations Director with 30+ years’ experience in formulating and implementing
strategic business operations, developing long range goals and objectives, and driving consistent regulatory
compliance, I know that I am a perfect fit for your open posting of VP of Operations. I am highly experienced
in managing both internal relationships and external customer support while serving as an organizational
leader. I believe that the unique combination of my education, certifications, and entrepreneurial spirit, along
with my innate ability to build organizations and deliver solutions to complex problems will be extremely
valuable to your company.
I successfully founded and led a logistics and transportation company with a single truck and 1 driver to
achieve revenue of $20M+ annually with 141 trucks. I managed all financial and operational aspects, including
budgets, forecasting, and reporting, while determining strategy for long-term growth, reducing employee
attrition, and saving the company $100k+ in costs. I was directly accountable for all business development,
including securing business with new customers and identifying and capitalizing on additional business with
existing customers, while providing overall direction, coordination, and evaluation of operations.
From 2013 to 2016, I took personal time off from work to help take care of family, however I maintained
current knowledge with industry practices and expectations by managing a major home renovation and
managing several construction operations.
My background and qualifications managing nationwide, diversified teams of 400+ personnel, and overseeing
large business mergers, coupled with my consistent ability to drive operations continuity from the ground-up,
appear to be well suited to your specific requirements. Please refer to the accompanying resume to provide
you with further details of my qualifications, in consideration for this position. I would like to meet with you to
discuss your goals and my ability to meet them. Please contact me via phone or email to arrange an interview.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Thomas E. Lane
