About me

Dear Sir/ Madam,

Further to your advertisement for the Office Manager position on , I should like to apply for this vacancy, and enclose my curriculum vitae for your consideration. I am very interested in this position as I believe that I have the right contribution of relevant industry experience and I believe I would be a valuable asset when it comes to this position.

For the past 2 years I have been working as the Office Manager at the London HQ for Giorgio Armani. I am happy to say that I was headhunted for this specific role which was created based on the 4 experience I obtained working as the Office-Showroom Manager for the notable American designer Diane Von Furstenberg. My role at Giorgio Armani focused mainly on the Office and Facilities Management side of things. Duties and responsibilities included setting up all office/ facilities management administration, overseeing departments' budget, point of contact for all Health and Safety queries and finally to tender contracts based on cost saving measures. I have also been fortunate enough to work on a big project relating to the re location and set up for the first London HQ for Giorgio Armani.

During my 4 and a half years at Diane Von Furstenberg I can say that was the foundation as to how I was able to obtain all my knowledge and organisational skills which has let me to progress within this field of business. As per my CV you can see that I have held various positions within DVF, firstly starting off as an Administration Coordinator which focused on overseeing the entire administration from the international office as well as assisting with the credit control and the logistic department. I was in the position in which all administration was managed by myself; I managed and action all payment allocations as well as reviewing the entire international budget with the accounting department in London and in New York.

With the experience I have acquired throughout these years I have been extremely focused on being able to move to an area that focuses specifically on Office/ Facilities management and I feel that this post would be an ideal position in which I hope to put my organizational and team work skills to further use and hopefully implement some structures which I learned over the years.

I would welcome an opportunity to further discuss this position with you if you feel that my experience meets the criteria.

Thank you very much for taking the time to review my application.

Your sincerely,

Felipe Perez Silva.
