POSITION:

Project Development

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to express my interest in a project development position. Graduated from xxx University with a master’s in International Development, I have been trained to explore the underdeveloped market and deliver strategic solutions to meet the social needs. With my combination of skills and experience, I feel I could make a valuable contribution to your company.

During my time as a social cooperation intern at xxx Foundation, I worked with the team to brainstorm innovative business ideas for a social entrepreneurial startup and assisted in drafting the business plan and presenting it in fundraising events. This social enterprise later became an award-winning company. At the same time, I participated in the annual evaluation of project funding as a liaison with grantees (project managers) from all around the country to ensure effective communication. In addition, I reviewed and identified strengths and weaknesses of every project and composed reports to the board of directors. Combining the recommendations from the final round, I then developed strategies for final candidates on how the non-profit projects could develop into social enterprises. Due to my outstanding performance, I was offered a full-time position with a salary above market rate.

Furthermore, I have developed strong research and interpersonal skills through schoolwork and extracurricular activities.

My research included sustainable management of

extractive and infrastructure project

, electricity and energy industry, and development issues. In order to accomplish the capstone project on assessment of economic diversification in single-industry towns in K, I worked closely with three teammates to design evaluation protocols and conduct interviews with locals, which proved me to be an excellent team player and a highly organized person.The experience of working in various organizations and studying in different countries enabled me to adapt to diverse cultures and communicate well with people from diverse backgrounds.

I welcome an opportunity to discuss further, and I thank you in advance for reviewing my application.

Sincerely,
