Dear …………,
Please accept this letter as my formal application for your Humanitarian Aid Worker vacancy which was advertised on the ……………. website today.
I have a strong desire to travel and work in various locations overseas where I can assist vulnerable people who need help. I am committed to making a real difference to and impact on communities and lives all around the world.
I can be trusted to organise quick and effective responses to crises by making sure that resources and personnel are deployed efficiently. However, what makes me stand out from others is my unique ability to monitor and evaluate aid projects and make changes as necessary for their success.
I feel I am suitable for your vacancy because I can advise on humanitarian laws and policies. With me you will get someone who is politically aware and familiar with geopolitical circumstances in a variety of European and Asian countries. In addition to this I also have the ability to manage the procurement, transportation, and distribution of humanitarian goods. You can rely on me to quickly respond to natural disasters and aid those caught up in conflict overseas.
During the two years that I have spent with my present employer, ……………., I have gained extensive experience of working on education, housing, sanitation, health, human rights and agriculture projects. I work long hours that are unsociable and unpredictable. At work I am the single point of contact for all issues relating to liaising with donors, local authorities and humanitarian community members.
Through my career I have travelled internationally to many areas where there has been political instability, war, natural disaster and medical hazards. During this time, I have seen human suffering, dealt with extremely heavy workloads and experienced limited accommodation options. I have spent most of my time being involved with communities that have different cultures and customs.
On a personal level I am open minded and have respect for different cultures, religions and ethnicities. Furthermore, I have the communication skills needed to build trusting working relationships with stakeholders, local staff and community members.
Right now, I would like to join an organisation like yours where in the future there will be lots of professional development opportunities, training and secondments.
Greater details of my accomplishments and achievements can be found in the CV that came attached with this letter. I know I can be a great asset to your company and look forward to discussing with you in person how I can contribute to your continued success.
Yours sincerely,
