Account manager cover letter example
An account manager's cover letter gives the size of the portfolio you manage, your renewal rate and growth with the period, and how you keep clients. Then say why this company's clients are ones you would look after well.
Fictional letter from Leah Brennan, the applicant in the account manager cv example. Every person and employer in it is invented.
Why each paragraph is there
I am applying for the Senior Account Manager role. I manage 34 business accounts worth £3.1 million a year for Pennine Facility Services, and last year 94% of contracts by value renewed.
The role, the portfolio and the renewal rate.
I grew the portfolio by £420,000 in the same year, mostly by adding services to existing clients. When a distribution centre client expanded to a second site, I brought our operations manager to the first meeting, and we won the new site within two months.
Growth with the period, and one example of how you won it.
I run quarterly reviews with each client's facilities manager and agree the actions with our operations team, and I negotiate prices at renewal within the margin set by our sales director.
How you keep clients and work with delivery.
Your focus on long contracts with logistics and healthcare sites is the work I know best. My CV is attached. Thank you for considering my application.
Why this company, and a polite close.
