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 Warehouse Administrator
I am writing to apply for the Warehouse Administrator role at [Company Name]. With a solid background in inventory management and warehouse systems, I am confident I can keep your stock records accurate and your despatch running smoothly.
In my most recent role, I was responsible for reconciling daily stock counts against our WMS. When discrepancies arose, I traced them to receiving errors and missing paperwork, then worked with the receiving team to correct the process. This cut the time spent on monthly stock investigations from two days to half a day and reduced repeated delivery delays.
I am particularly drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I want to contribute to a team that values accuracy and efficiency in its warehouse operations.
Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I would welcome the chance to discuss how I can help your warehouse team meet its administrative targets.
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.
