Airdrie,AB

Summary

I am very excited and enthusiastic about the possibility of being a successful candidate for the Recreation Operator Level 1 position.

My life long love of sport coupled with the opportunity to work in, support and meet people in my home community of Airdrie sounds like a perfect fit for me at this time of my life.

I feel that the experiences I was blessed with in 25 years of military service, as well as the highly successful transition to leading a team in a customer-focused and corporate-driven industry, have set the stage for me to be a very successful and valuable member of your recreation operations team.

Continuous learning, and the opportunity to learn new skills and develop new knowledge, is part of what drives me. This opportunity strikes me as one where the skills and experience I have already developed would allow me to be productive within your team immediately, and also put me in a position to expand those skills and find new challenges and ways I can contribute both to the greater team, as well as the people of Airdrie.

I have some training benefits available to me and can easily complete any required training at any time.

In closing, I would like to thank you for taking the time to consider this application, and I am eager to hear back from you.
