Cover Letter Template — Administrative Assistant

Sample cover letter

Dear [Hiring Manager Name],

I'm applying for the Administrative Assistant position at [Company]. Your posting mentions calendar management for multiple leaders and preparation of leadership decks — both are central to my current work.

At [Current Company], I manage calendars and travel for three VPs, produce weekly board-ready PowerPoint updates, and coordinate onsite meetings for a distributed team. I'm advanced in Outlook and Excel and proficient across the Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace stacks.

I'd welcome the chance to meet with you and would be glad to walk through a sample calendar or trip I've built. Thank you for considering my application.

Sincerely,

[Your Name] • [Phone] • [Email]
