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 Club Manager
I am writing to apply for the Club Manager role at [Company Name]. With a background in licensed club operations and a focus on compliance, rostering and member service, I am confident I can help your venue run smoothly and profitably.
In my current role, I oversee a roster of more than 30 staff across bar, gaming, kitchen and duty shifts. I introduced a forecasting process using SwiftPOS sales data and Deputy, which cut overtime while keeping every shift covered. I also managed the club budget, working with suppliers to improve margin without compromising quality, and coordinated weekly member events that increased attendance. My compliance record is clean, with RSA and RCG policies embedded in daily operations and staff training.
I am drawn to [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to].
Thank you for considering my application. I have attached my resume and would welcome the chance to discuss how I can contribute to your club.
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.
