Dear Manager,

As a qualified Butcher with 3 years' experience, I apply with interest for your vacancy at Smith's Butcher Shop.

I am currently a Butcher at Stoddart & Sons, where I cut, trim, and bone meats such as beef, chicken, and pork, ensuring exceptional quality and hygiene standards are fully met. Additionally, I:

• Communicate with customers to identify their needs and make recommendations
• Weigh and label meat, implement food safety procedures, and perform back-up store management duties
• Manage supplies and equipment, and work on the reduction of waste

I was recently recognised as Employee of the Month for increasing customer satisfaction from 83% to 98% (based on survey findings). I am punctual, reliable, trustworthy and self-motivated, with a proven ability to work under pressure. I hold a Certificate in Meat and Poultry and am familiar with COVID-19 health & safety policies and practices. In addition to fluent English, I am a native Polish speaker.

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 sincerely,

Krisztian Pataki
