What I'm looking for
Dear Hiring Manager
I am writing in response to the Junior Project Coordinator position with INFUSE. With my
background in customer service, organizational skills, and experience working with diverse
populations, I am confident that I am the best candidate for this role.
As an organized and results oriented individual, I am confident in my ability to coordinate the
daily activities of the Junior Project Coordinator role. My experience working in customer
service has taught me the importance of communication and collaboration to ensure the
successful completion of tasks. As a coordinator, I have probably organised several events,
meetings and workshops, not forgetting the ability to juggle multiple tasks simultaneously
managing program related tasks, such as data entry, reporting and communicating with
stakeholders.
As a coordinator, I encountered unexpected challenges such as data discrepancies, logistical
issues or stakeholder concerns but with strong problem skills I was able to keep operations
running well and I am confident I can exercise this skill effectively for this position.
I also had the pleasure of working with diverse populations, giving me insight into how best
cater to the needs of people from different backgrounds. I am comfortable working in a
variety of settings, and I pride myself on my adaptability. Other relevant transferable skills
that I can exploit for this position include time management, attention to detail and teamwork
I am eager to put my skills to work in a new environment and am confident that I would be an
asset to INFUSE I am available for an interview at your convenience, and I look forward to
discussing my qualifications in more detail.
Thank you for your time and consideration
