Application for the Position of General Manager

Dear Head of Human Resources,

As General Manager with 10 years of transformational leadership experience, I apply with great interest for this role.

I am currently the Managing Director of PN Group, where I steer key business operations and manage 50 employees to ensure superior residential and business courier delivery services. I was initially brought on board to implement change management initiatives to return the business to profit. Mirroring the requirements of your role, I:

  • transform non-profitable companies: I turned PN around from $275k annual loss to $475K annual profit <2 years
  • cultivate happy high-performers: I dramatically increased PN's new hire retention rate from 27% to 97% <18 months
  • expanded our courier fleet to include drones and bicycles, slashing average delivery times from 2 days to 12 hours

In addition to my leadership experience, I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration. I have been described by employees as dynamic, empathetic and just, with a strong sense of integrity and urgency. I believe that the formula to success is not only in knowing your market and target audience, but in ensuring that employees are individually recognized and have plenty of scope for professional development.

I have enjoyed my time at PN Group. As I have successfully achieved my goals, I am now seeking a stimulating opportunity where I can make a meaningful impact on the organization's operations and future direction.

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,

Lucas Weisz
