I’m writing to express a strong interest in the Accounting Assistant position at ManTech, as recently advertised on you career website. With a bachelor’s degree in accounting and corresponding work experience in accounts payable processing, I am confident in my ability to make a significant contribution to ManTech’s mission. I am especially interested in working for ManTech because of its excellent repute in the financial market.
During my two years’ experience in a similar position at Beta Line, I have had the opportunity to polish my skills in a dominating accounts environment. I possess working knowledge of fundamental financial management practices and accepted accounting principles. My knowledge of cost accounting takes me a step further than those of my counterparts as I possess critical thinking skills that are needed to anticipate issues and information requirements. Furthermore, I am skilled in using all popular accounting software including Oracle Financial Management and DaFIS.
Specifically, I have a demonstrated ability to process payments for a variety of accounts payable transactions. I am able to perform data entry of vendor invoices, generate employee expenditure reports and check request vouchers manually. I also have a track record of ensuring exact general ledger postings in processing invoices and making corrections.
As a passionate and dependable candidate, I would like to meet with you in order to discuss the contribution that I could make to your bottom-line. I’ll call your office during the first week of December to follow-up with you. In the meantime, I will be available at (000) 551-4441 or via email at laura @ email . com.
