How to structure it

Opening

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 Mechanical Services Plumber

I am writing to apply for the Mechanical Services Plumber role at [Company Name]. With my hands-on experience in installing and maintaining HVAC systems, I am confident I can contribute to your team.

In my previous role, I installed chilled water pipework for a multi-level commercial building. I also tested and commissioned the system, which involved adjusting valves and pumps to achieve the specified flow and pressure. My attention to detail helped the project pass inspection without any rework, and the client noted the system ran efficiently from day one.

[add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to] I am keen to bring my skills to [Company Name] and contribute to your reputation for quality mechanical services.

Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume for your review and look forward to discussing how I can support your projects.

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.
