dear ms. walters:

as the senior administrative executive for cord & decker, inc., perhaps you are in need of a talented purchasing manager who can almost certainly make immediate contributions to the bottom line of your company.

a senior purchasing agent for a fortune 200, $2.8 billion consumer products company, i have enjoyed a reputation as a "tough but fair negotiator", who has made significant cost savings contributions to my employer. these have included:

　　-consolidated corporate-wide packaging supplies purchases with resultant annual savings of $35 million

　　-contributed $12 million annual savings through conversion from oil to biomass fuels with long-term purchase contract

　　-saved $8 million annually in inventory costs through installation of computerized raw materials tracking and forecasting system

　　-successfully negotiated five-year knock-down carton contract with major supplier worth $5.5 million savings annually

educational credentials include a b.s. in packaging from michigan state university and an m.b.a. in finance from penn state university. i have more than 15 years purchasing experience with a major international corporation, and have been professionally active in my field.

compensation requirements are in the low $80k range, and i am open to relocation anywhere in the united states.

should you feel my background qualifies me for a current corporate management assignment at cord & decker,inc., i would welcome the opportunity to meet with you. please contact me at my home in the evening.

i appreciate your consideration.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 sincerely,
