Cashier Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve spent the last few years working behind the till and behind the scenes keeping cash flow accurate, which is why I’m applying for [Company Name]. In my current role I’ve helped keep the day’s sales balanced to within $50 of the register total on busy shifts, using careful counting and routine reconciliation. It’s not glamorous, but it keeps the line moving and the customer’s change correct every time. I’m comfortable with cash handling, receipts, and change procedures, and I know how to operate a POS system and record transactions accurately. I’m used to processing payments, issuing dockets, and balancing against sales records. I pay attention to petty cash and bank deposits preparation, and I understand the importance of keeping change stocked and organised for smooth service. In a recent shift at [Previous Company], I counted and reconciled cash after the lunch rush, catching a small discrepancy before it became a bigger issue. I flagged the difference, reviewed the receipts, and adjusted the register to balance. The team appreciated the quiet, consistent approach, and we avoided delays for customers who were paying by card or cash. I’m available to chat about how I can support [Company Name] with accurate cash handling and efficient checkout processes. I can start on short notice and would welcome the chance to discuss the role further. Kind regards, [Your Name]
