Dear Sir or Madam,

I would like to express my interest in the position within your organization. Thus I would like to open discussions with you about my possible employment within your firm.

I am currently holding a Singapore Permanent Resident status and working for Phillip Securities, one of Singapore's leading financial institutions, to help the company grow in selling their online retail products and services. This experience has helped me to understand the Asian retail markets, specifically Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong and Thailand.

After graduated from Central Queensland University – Sydney with a major in Marketing and Communications, I have worked extensively with many MNC clients on various types of advisory projects. One of my major clients was PT Multi Bintang Indonesia (a leading manufacturer and distributor of Bintang Beer). As an Assistant Business Development Manager, I was in charge of the market analysis and project development working together with TBWA (a multinational advertising agency) to create digital marketing for Bintang Beer. In addition, I was involved in its product road shows in Indonesia’s five largest cities.

Having been with W3 Consult, an Indonesian internet consulting firm, my portfolio of experience has been as follows:

• Asia Pulp and Paper -- with the project value of USD 50,000

• Bintang Beer -- with the project value of USD 25,000

• Jakarta Future Exchange -- with the project value of USD 175,000

My work experiences lead me to believe that the position within your firm would allow me to capitalize on the skill set I have gained so far. I am attracted to your organization not only because of its strong reputation, but also because the position involves me in areas of my interests, such as business & competitive strategy, market analysis and sales activities within the company. I see this as a tremendous career and contribution opportunity for me.

I would say that I have strong business skills with an emphasis on good organization and budget management skills; and the capacity to motivate professionals to higher goal achievement. Overall, I feel that my diligence, education, complemented by my work experiences will help me become an effective and integral member of the team. The challenging environment that your organization has to offer is one that I am confident of handling and strongly desire.

Attached please find my resume.  Please do not hesitate to call me at +65-9475-8902 or email me at herrytj@hotmail.com if you have any further questions regarding my background and interests. 

Yours truly,
Herry TJANDRASUSILO
