Housekeeping Manager Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’m applying for the Housekeeping Manager role at [Company Name] because I want a steady, practical setup where teams can do solid, reliable work. In my last role I led a 25-person housekeeping team across a 180-room operation, and we kept standard audits within 98 per cent on every check. I’m not big on buzzwords, just clear routines and good communication that keep rooms ready for guests. I’m skilled with scheduling, inventory control, and quality standards. I’ve built shift patterns that align with demand, cut overtime by about 15 per cent, and kept par levels tight to avoid stockouts. I use standard checklists and practical training to bring new staff up to speed quickly, without slowing the day-to-day flow. I’m interested in how [Company Name] maintains cleanliness benchmarks and guest satisfaction, and I’m comfortable working with external suppliers when needed. There’s a story from last year I still think about. We faced a sudden peak in bookings and a tight turnaround after a large conference. I reorganised room turnovers, moved a few housekeeping tasks to the evenings, and briefed the team on prioritising high-traffic rooms first. The result was rooms ready on time, guest feedback that praised cleanliness, and significantly improved turnaround speed without compromising safety or cleanliness. I’m available to chat about how my background fits [Company Name] and how we can sustain high standards together. I can come in for a discussion at your convenience. Kind regards, [Your Name]
