Summary

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my interest in the Cabinet Maker position at your company. With over eight years of hands-on experience in cabinet making, including five years as a Protection Manager overseeing both safety standards and craftsmanship, I bring a strong blend of technical skill, leadership, and attention to detail.

Throughout my career, I have worked on a wide range of custom cabinetry projects from residential kitchens to commercial installations ensuring high-quality finishes and precise measurements. In my role as a Protection Manager, I was responsible not only for leading a team but also for implementing safety protocols and maintaining project timelines, all while continuing to contribute as a skilled cabinet maker.

I take great pride in my workmanship and strive to deliver functional, aesthetically pleasing results that meet and exceed client expectations. I am confident that my expertise, reliability, and commitment to excellence would make me a valuable asset to your team.

Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my experience can contribute to your company’s success.

Sincerely,
Damith Wanigasekara
