Payroll Administrator Cover Letter Example

Dear Hiring Managers,

I am writing this cover letter to express my interest in applying for the Payroll Administrator job within YTR Group, Inc. in Los Angeles, CA which has been posted and advertised on LinkedIn.com. I believe that my qualifications make me a perfect fit for this role and I am also confident that it would be an exceptional opportunity for me to grow both personally and professionally.

First of all, I am a Certified Payroll Manager offering excellent analytical skills and the important ability to function well both independently and in fast-paced team environments. At RML Corporation, LLC, where I worked as a Payroll Administrator for over 3 years, I was given the responsibility for coordinating multiple payroll processes, preparing the monthly payroll for 50+ employees, and filling various documents, ensuring the accuracy of all information. Additionally, I maintained relevant correspondence, produced weekly reports, and collaborated with colleagues on the constant improvement of the whole payroll system to reduce unnecessary expenses. For decreasing the costs by 18% within just one year and constantly achieving extraordinary results, I had won the Employee of the Year Award.

On top of my career history, I am adept at using all software programs necessary for the role, including Gusto, QuickBooks Pro, and ADP Workforce. With a bachelor's degree in Economics & Finance from the Macquarie University, I am a performance-driven individual possessing a pro-active approach and determination to exceed all assigned objectives. At the university, I served as a Vice President of the Investment Society for one year and this tremendous experience has allowed me to become a great leader. Finally, I am a native German speaker with a proficiency in English and a basic knowledge of Spanish. I would appreciate the opportunity to meet with you in person to discuss the job and my qualities in more detail.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Thomas Steinhauser
