Dear Head of Recruitment,

As a Business Architect with 4+ years of experience in defining organization-wide transformation strategies across people, process, technology and data, I apply with enthusiasm for this opportunity.

In my current role as Business Architect at VB Consultancy, for the past 3 years I have provided subject matter expertise to dozens of clients to ensure that their business' needs and drivers are represented through 3-5 year business and technology roadmaps. In particular, I:

• translate business / IT strategy into detailed diagrams, process models, and capability maps to support high-level decision making
• plan, manage, and deliver optimized business processes as part of client transformation programs
• capture the tactical and strategic enterprise goals that provide traceability through the client organization and are mapped to metrics that ensure ongoing governance
• develop business cases, write engaging executive reports, and conduct ROI analyses

I possess strong leadership, communication and interpersonal skills, alongside the ability to clearly explain complex concepts to non-specialists. I have excellent knowledge and software implementation experience of core business systems and a deep understanding of emerging trends in software service architectures, hosting, AI, machine learning, and automation.

In addition to my professional experience, I hold a Master of Business Administration (MBA), a Bachelor of Advanced Automation and Robotics Technology, and a Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification.

Please find attached my resume for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours faithfully,

Tom Michaelsen
