Dear Contact Person:

As an experienced communications professional, I'm very interested in the position of Associate Vice President of University Campaign Communications at the University of North Florida.

I have a proven track record in almost all of the competencies you're seeking, especially in strategically communicating institutional priorities. Here are a few highlights:

    Twelve years experience developing and implementing internal and external communications for ABCD Energy/Electric and ABCD Croporation.
    Handling a wide range of creative services, collaborating with and supervising creative services staff and vendors to produce marketing and other print communications, as well online communications and video projects.
    Exceptional writing and editing skills honed over the past 13 years in public relations and corporate communications; from press releases to newsletters to video scripts to web sites and intranet publications.
    Providing communications counsel and expertise to executives and managers for issues management, benefits communications and employee relations.

    As a recent transplant to Miami, I still own a home in Tampa and would love to put my skills to work back in Tampa.

    Please let me know if I can answer any questions or provide any work samples.

    Sincerely,

    Your Name
