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 Concrete Pump Operator

I am applying for the Concrete Pump Operator role at [Company Name]. With hands-on experience setting up and running boom and line pumps across residential and commercial pours, I keep concrete flowing safely and on schedule.

In a recent role I ran a line pump on a basement pour where the only access was down a narrow ramp. I set up the pipeline with extra clamps at each bend, watched the pressure gauge closely and stayed on the radio with the concreters so we could slow the discharge when the formwork started to shift. We finished the pour without a blockage or blowout, and I was asked to run the pump for the next stage of the same project.

I want to work for [Company Name] because [add one genuine, specific reason: a project, value, or market position you can point to].

Thank you for considering my application. My resume is attached, and I am happy to discuss my tickets, licences and availability at your convenience.

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.
