Dear Hiring Manager,

I am a dynamic and friendly professional with over 10 years’ experience in the banking & finance industry and am
passionate about providing outstanding performance.

In my current role as Regional Manager at UBL Fund Managers Ltd I help to solve customer’s investment issues of
me & my team by providing information and advice about their options. I make a point of listening carefully to
every customer, repeating their requirements back to them and then outlining clearly the products and services
which are applicable to them, guiding them to the option which will best satisfy their needs.

In my previous role as Area Manager, I outperformed & twice won competition & was rewarded with foreign trips
for executing effective strategies & generating maximum revenue for the organization.

Working effectively as a member of a team is important to me, in my previous positions I worked as an integral part
of a team which, together, worked towards common goals and targets. As a ‘people person’, I thrive on this sort of
interaction and enjoy being able to help others. I also enjoy coaching new team members.

In addition I have excellent communication skills. I always maintain a mature, gracious and professional manner
when communicating with people, even when difficulties arise. On a more general level, I believe I bring the broad
"soft" skills you can have confidence in with a candidate that will represent the Company & your customers. I trust
you would find me to be well-spoken, energetic, confident, and personable, the type of person on whom your
customers will rely.

I greatly appreciate you for taking the time to review my enclosed resume. I hope that you'll find my job
experiences, Skills, interests, and character intriguing enough to warrant a face-to-face meeting.
