Subject: Note for Richard Kahn
Dear Richard,
Thank you for the opportunity to discuss the open position in your family office. I enjoyed speaking with you
yesterday and believe that my experience matches the job's criteria. I am a hands on manager with strong focus on
team work and attention to detail.
Currently as a Property Director, I manage a staff of 40 employees, oversee 100 contractors, and direct all
construction, maintenance, and security for multiple properties. In addition, I serve as the site project manager for all
capital work and events, including bids/proposals and contract negotiations. My responsibilities also include serving
as the owner's representative with project architects, engineers, landscapers, and decorators. I also serve as the liaison
with insurance representatives, accountants, lawyers, and advisors.
While in this role, I have prepared the budgets and managed a wide range of multi-million dollar construction and
renovation projects. In addition, I have prepared and managed the operating and capital expenditure budgets for
various residences and properties. My success is attributable to a detailed knowledge of the industry, excellent project
management skills, attention to detail, knowledge of luxury property operations standards and procedures, human
resource management skills, and the use of goal setting and performance measurement to keep all parties focused and
on-target. In addition, I am a strong advocate of teamwork, proactive communication, high service
standards, performance excellence and continuous improvement.
Richard, I strongly understand the confidential nature of working in a family office. I am most interested in
continuing our discussion.
Sincerely,
EFTA00622664
