Dear Sir Smith,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am Alex, and I have been working at ABC company for the past two years as a Marketing Head. I learned that our London head office is offering a six-months work opportunity, and I would like to formally express my interest in this position.

First and foremost, I will learn about data-driven marketing strategies and customer engagement techniques used in global markets. Moreover, with my enhanced knowledge I would be able to contribute more effectively to the company’s growth.

Secondly, regarding to work responsibilities, I have made a detailed schedule and delegated my responsibilities among my team members. Along with that, I will remain available virtually via video conference and address any challenge that may arise.

Lastly, I would truly appreciate your support in discussing my application with Mr. Colon, as I understand he is responsible for selecting candidates for this opportunity. Please inform me if I can provide you any further information.

I am looking forward to hearing back from you with good news.

Yours sincerely,

Alex
