Dear managements,

I am writing to express my interest in the Accounting and Administrative Assistant position at Embassy of
Luxembourg as advertised. With a solid educational background in Accounting and Finance from Addis Ababa
University and extensive experience in the banking sector, I am eager to bring my skills in financial
management, administration, and customer relations to your esteemed Embassy.

During my time as a Branch Banking Officer at the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia, I successfully managed daily
banking operations while enhancing customer satisfaction through efficient problem resolution. My role
involved preparing financial reports, reconciling accounts, and ensuring compliance with banking regulations.
These experiences have honed my analytical skills and attention to detail—qualities I understand are critical
for the successful execution of the responsibilities outlined in your job description.

I am proficient in Microsoft Office, particularly Excel, which I used extensively for financial reporting and data
management in my previous roles. This proficiency facilitated accurate budgeting and helped streamline
various accounting operations while ensuring timely execution of payments and correspondence. Additionally,
my experience liaising with various departments and managing communications aligns well with the
coordinating meetings and events aspect of the role.

I possess a strong sense of responsibility and discretion, and I thrive in dynamic team environments. My ability
to stay organized amidst various tasks has allowed me to handle large cash transactions with integrity while
meeting deadlines and maintaining high standards of service. Further, I am fluent in both English and Amharic,
with a working knowledge of French, which I believe would be an asset when liaising with diverse stakeholders.

I am excited about the prospect of contributing to Embassy of Luxembourg and am confident that my
background and enthusiasm for public service will make me a valuable addition to your team. I look forward to
the possibility of discussing how my skills and experiences align with the needs of your Embassy.

Thank you for considering my application. I hope to speak with you soon to explore this opportunity further.

Warm regards,

Yoseph assegdaw Wendimagegn
