Aquaculture Worker Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent several seasons on coastal nets and inland ponds, getting hands-on with feed schedules, water testing, and cage maintenance. At a recent site I helped stabilise feeding routines and adjusted stock grades to reduce waste, which cut unnecessary feed by about 8% in the first fortnight. I’m keen to bring that practical, steady approach to [Company Name] as an aquaculture worker. From monitoring growth to maintaining housing and equipment, I’ve built a solid toolkit. I routinely test water quality, inspect pumps, and keep nets, long-lines and cages in good repair. I’ve also helped with small-scale layout planning and restocking juvenile fish, and I understand the importance of accurate data collection for tracking performance and planning harvests. One morning last season, we found a slow decline in a cohort and traced it to a minor circulation issue. We swapped to a backup pump, rebalanced feeding, and rechecked oxygen levels. By the end of the week growth rates were back on track and dead fish were minimal. It was a simple sequence of checks, but it saved a lot of stock and stress for the crew. I’m available for a chat about how I can contribute at [Company Name]. I’ve worked with [Previous Company] and others, and I’m ready to discuss how my hands-on approach and reliability fit your team. Kind regards, [Your Name]
