The structure that works

1

Opening

State the role and one specific reason you're a strong fit — ideally tied to a result you've delivered as a professional in this space.

2

The case

Connect two or three of your real accomplishments to what the role needs: set operating strategy across multiple teams or locations; own a departmental budget and headcount plan; develop managers and build succession depth.

3

Why them

Show you understand the company or team's context — reference something specific from the posting, not a template line.

4

Close

A confident, brief sign-off with a clear next step. No begging, no fluff.

What to avoid

  • Generic openings that could apply to any job.
  • Claims you can't back up in an interview.
  • Restating your résumé line by line.
