How to structure it

Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.
Middle
One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.
Why this employer
One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.
Close
Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.
Re: Application for Gym Manager
I am writing to apply for the Gym Manager position at [Company Name]. With my experience in fitness operations, team leadership and member retention, I am confident I can help your facility run smoothly and grow.
In my previous role, I managed a team of 12 instructors and support staff, rostering them efficiently to cover 60 hours of operation per week while keeping overtime to a minimum. I introduced a follow-up program for lapsed members that brought back 50 former members in six months, and I oversaw equipment maintenance to ensure all safety checks were completed on time and downtime was minimised.
I am particularly drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I align with your commitment to community fitness and would welcome the chance to contribute to your ongoing success.
Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume for your review and look forward to discussing how I can support your team.
Getting it right
- Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
- Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
- Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
- Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
