Subject: Application for Audit and Tax Manager

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to apply for the Audit and Tax Manager role at your firm. I have 5 years of experience in statutory audit and indirect tax, and I enjoy helping business owners stay compliant without stress.

At Gulab Nagar & Associates I led audits of 14 companies and delivered every report on time. I filed 220 GST returns a year without penalties and found ₹38 lakh of input credit that clients had missed.

I would welcome the chance to bring this attention to detail to your clients. Thank you for your time, and I look forward to discussing the role with you.

Yours sincerely,
Neha Bhargava

  • It ends politely and briefly, and is easy to read in under a minute.
