Summary

I am writing to express my interest in securing an Associate position at your company. I specializing in

Secretarial and Administrative skills. I come from a solid seafarer and Officer background with a strong

interest in business and a passion towards strategy. My area of focus and interest varies from

quantitative analysis to management. My experience is not only very analytical and technical by nature but also helps to build leadership and team building qualities. I believe my academic background, business knowledge and industry experiences have provided me with the credentials needed to thrive as an Associate.

Prior to MSC, I worked as a Service Desk Analyst, primarily resolving strategic issues related to

technology process improvement. I gained solid research, analytical and problem solving skills while

working for RCS creditors. My background in generating innovative ideas and strategies to improve

processes has provided me with a deeper understanding of multifaceted problems that companies

encounter in their daily operations. Moreover, because of my work experiences, I fully understand how

important it is to have great team dynamics in today’s multi-disciplinary business environment.

To date, my experience has been extremely rewarding and productive. However, it is through strategy

consulting that I can use my analytical, administrative and marine aptitude and creative problem

solving skills to their fullest. I strongly believe that consulting is a discipline that will force me to view

problems not only from the client’s standpoint but also from a marketplace, best practices and “think

out of the box” point of views.
