Cover Letter for Store Manager

I am happy to apply for the Store Manager position at (name of the store). I recently came across a brochure that stated your store was looking for a diligent person to Manage the new branch of your brand (name of the brand). I quickly sat down to write this application because I knew this was my chance to prove my skills by managing a high-brand store.

I would also like to congratulate you for opening a new branch in (name of the place or state). Expanding your brand would be a great move as most people who reside in (name of the place or area) love (name of the brand). But unfortunately, as the brand had no store in (name of the region), people had to either go to (name of the other place or area) to buy clothes, or they had to simply rely on a friend or a relative who might have to go to (name of the place) for bringing them their required pieces of clothing. Therefore, I consider it a great move to expand your business in an area where people are already fans of your brand.

The store’s expansion also means you would require a new team to run the store smoothly. Recruitment for new employees is for sure a complex process. It requires a lot of research and effort. I am proud to state that I can fully complete this procedure. I have worked as a manager for several different brands. These brands include (name of the brand), (name of the brand) and (name of the brand). I have helped recruit new staff many times. Therefore, I am pretty familiar with the steps of this procedure. I assure you that with my skills and knowledge, I would make this recruitment a piece of cake for the brand.

Speaking of my skills and expertise, I have been responsible for carrying out several other tasks during my tenure as a manager of (name of the store or brand). These responsibilities included managing all the employees and assigning them their daily tasks. I also kept a record of the total absentees of any employee and used to follow strict company rules over the matter. I also oversaw the timings for the opening and closing of the store, both daily and on special occasions. I was vigilant in looking into the customer complaints and rectifying them immediately. My biggest priority was satisfying customers because I believe keeping customers happy is the key to increasing sales and running the store smoothly. 

My other duties as a manager included managing each employee’s payroll and auditing timesheets.

I am skilled enough for the job and an excellent fit for the job as a manager because of my educational background. I have completed my bachelor’s from (name of the University) in (state the year of degree completion). I completed my bachelor’s in (name of the degree) with a major in (name of the subject), (name of the subject) and (name of the subject). After completing my bachelor’s, I did my master’s in (name of the degree) from (name of the University). After the completion of my studies, I also did an internship at (name of the store) for (time duration) before getting my first job at (name of the store). I worked as the store manager for (number of years).

At last, I would like to thank you for considering my application for the manager position at (name of the store). I look forward to sharing my previous experience with you. I firmly believe that with all my expertise and skills, I can be a valuable member of the team at (name of the brand/ store). For any further queries, please contact me at the details mentioned.
