Cover Letter Tips and Samples for the Promotion

Give your reason for writing the cover letter for promotion, saying like you heard about the job vacancy through a posting internally. By mentioning how you heard about the job opening, you will let the employer know that you are an employee already, which is helpful if you work for a large company.

State the department you work in currently, plus how long you have been there. Mention your initial position of that department, and how long it takes for you to move into your current position. This can help the hiring manager see your progress on your past career.

List some of your qualifications. If you have any special certifications, state them as well. If you've gone through any specialized company training, mention this and how it has prepared you for the promotion.

State some of your accomplishments while working for the company. If productivity for the company has increased because of your efforts, state this. Provide statistics to back up your claims. These show the employer that you’re an asset to the company. When putting these down, use bullet-point formatting instead of a comma sequence, which will make your accomplishments stand out visually.

Choose a time that is mutually convenient to ask for an interview. List your current shift hours and your contact number. Your hours let your employer know the best time to interview you.

Dear Mrs. Bronson,

The internal advertisement for Department Manager position posted on intranet grabs my attention, and I'd like to consider for this promoted post.

I’ve spent the last two years working in various departments of the company’s Head Office, as you may be aware, gaining skills and experience that are valuable in project management. You will see my CV that I’ve taken advantage of many in-house courses and have applied them by setting up new processes in Marketing and helping to supervise new staff in the office of administration.

I have shown the ability to work in different departments and to make strong working relationships with suppliers and colleagues. I think that the achievements found in my CV prove my ability to take on new responsibilities and my potential to further my career with ABC Company.

I am sure that my abilities and skills would fit ideally in this position and I’d love to discuss my interest further in an interview. I’m confident that my current supervisor would be happy to give complete feedback on my work performance.

Thank you for your consideration and time. I look forward to speaking with you.

Yours sincerely,

Henry Smithe

Dear Mr. Honore,

While going through the internet looking for Promotions Assistant job openings, I found your advertisement. My diploma in marketing and sales and my five years of experience in performing promotional activities makes me perfect for this job and I am sure that my abilities will become an asset for Radio One.

My experience in the advertising and marketing fields is extensive. When I was working with ABC Company, I planned and carried out promotional campaigns, plus helped design promotional materials that increased the efficiency of the department by 30%. As the job description requires, I am proficient in managing sponsored events and can maintain a good liaison with many companies that give sponsorships. I am also highly skilled in making public conversation in a friendly but professional manner. My experience with other organizations has enhanced my ability to perform inside and outside the office. I’m hard-working and pay special attention to details and am capable of working around the clock sometimes, as I understand the demands of this position.

Please find my resume enclosed which will give you more insight into my experience. I’m available any time at 000-000-0000 so we can plan a meeting time or for more material to support my claims.

Thank you for your consideration and time in this regard.
