Business Manager Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the past few years steering business operations in fast paced environments and I’ve learned to spot the bottlenecks quickly. At [Previous Company] I helped stabilise a project portfolio that was spread thin across several teams, and within six months the project delivery cycle shortened by about 15%. That kind of steady improvement comes from practical planning, clear accountability and solid financial discipline. In this role I would bring strong grounding in budgeting, forecasting and performance reporting, and I’m comfortable working across operations, finance and people teams. I look for ways to align daily work with longer term goals, and I’m keen to understand what success looks like for [Company Name]. I value concise reporting, reliable data and practical process changes that can be put into action without creating extra admin. Early in my career I led a workflow realignment that reduced handoffs and duplicated effort. We implemented a shared KPI suite and a quarterly review cadence that kept the team focused on outcomes rather than tasks. The change significantly improved cross functional collaboration and reduced late-stage rework, which is exactly the kind of result that matters when you’re managing a growing business with limited resources. I’m available to discuss how I can contribute to [Company Name] and outline a practical plan for the first 90 days. If you’d like to chat, I’m happy to connect at your convenience. Kind regards, [Your Name]
