How to structure it

Opening

Name the role and, in one line, the strongest reason you're a fit. Skip the throat-clearing.

Middle

One or two paragraphs of real, specific evidence: what you did, and the result. This is where most letters go generic. Yours shouldn't.

Why this employer

One genuine, specific reason you want this job at this company, not any company. Vague enthusiasm reads as a template that wasn't customised.

Close

Thank them, note your resume is attached, and make it easy to reach you.

Re: Application for Canvas Goods Maker

I am writing to apply for the Canvas Goods Maker role at [Company Name]. With hands-on experience measuring, cutting and stitching canvas, PVC and shade cloth, I can step into your workshop and produce durable tarpaulins, awnings and covers from day one.

In my last role, I repaired a batch of 30 swags, replacing zips, reinforcing corners and re-fitting grommets. Each one was returned to the customer within a week, and the workshop received repeat orders for similar repairs. I also reworked a production method for large tarpaulins that cut turnaround from five days to three, without sacrificing seam strength or finish.

I want to work for [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to]. I am keen to bring my attention to detail and problem solving to a team that takes pride in well-made canvas goods.

Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I would welcome the chance to discuss how my skills fit your workshop.

Getting it right

Keep it to one page. A hiring manager spends seconds on this before deciding whether to read your resume.
Address a named person where you can find one, rather than "To Whom It May Concern".
Don't repeat your resume line for line. Use the letter to add context a bullet point can't: why this role, why now, why here.
Match the tone of the job ad. A formal listing calls for a formal letter; a casual one gives you room to write more like yourself.

This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Make it specific to the actual employer before you send it.
