About me

1 June 2012

Dear Sir or Madam

I am interested in the position of Part Time Drama School Administrator as seen on the Creativepool website on 1 June. Please find a copy of my CV attached.

I have extensive office experience. This has given me varied skills, such as: excellent at communication (with clients and staff) in person, on the phone, by email and letter; efficient handling of enquiries from a variety of personalities; exceptional organisational abilities and accustom to prioritising a multitude of tasks; able to maintain records and practices accurately using, and including, intranet database systems and Excel and Access; proficient at IT using Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook; familiar with the management of office post (in coming and outgoing); can work efficiently as an individual or as part of a team; and a proven track record in administration.

In my previous employments, I have provided support to departmental staff in administration. The general office duties would include ensuring that the office was presentable and be the first point of contact on all administrative matters whether internal or external to the company and this may be through the phone, email, letter or in person. I was required to manage petty cash and staff expenses and to process the corresponding paperwork, as well as processing the order forms and invoices for the finance department.

I am looking for a part time role that is challenging, varied and where I can use the experiences that I gained from all previous positions. It was in the role at Calder that I was able to develop my verbal and written communication skills further as I was required to handle all office enquiries where some were very challenging as they came from visitors who were sometime very upset about an issue. I had to learn how to deal with stressful situations calmly and know how to help find a quick solution to a problem or a more experienced member of staff who specialized in that area. I had to act in a professional manner at all times.

I am a mature student who is confident, adaptable, pay attention to details and can rise to new challenges and deliver results. I am studying for a degree (part time) and am interested in a part time position.

I am available for interview during week days.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Kind regards,

Marina Lewis
