“Dear Hiring Manager,

I am a maritime professional with 15+ years of planning and directing fleet maintenance strategy, as a licensed and degreed marine engineer and Navy Surface Warfare Officer. It is with great enthusiasm that I submit my application for the position of Director, Strategic Maintenance Planning with Carnival Cruise Line in Miami, FL.

As you will see from the attached resume, while my career has been built upon a variety of roles and responsibilities, one consistent element has been safe, effective, and efficient marine operations. A sound maintenance strategy, leveraging reliable readiness data, available spares, and engaged stakeholders, is a critical enabler of those operations.

From executing planned maintenance as a deck and engine (technical) officer aboard a variety of military and commercial ships to developing maintenance strategy as the Navy Atlantic Fleet Shipboard Combat Systems Readiness Officer, I have accumulated extensive experience managing the maintenance, repair, and logistics support of vessels globally. Additionally, I have had the distinct privilege of a nearly 2-year CLIA mentorship and have gained a broad understanding of cruise ship operations.

I am thrilled at the possibility of becoming an integral part of Carnival Corporation & PLC and helping exceed guest expectations while safeguarding guests, crew, ships, and the environment through the execution of a sound maintenance strategy. My maritime education, Navy experience, CLIA relationship and passion to set the conditions for a culture of maintenance excellence align well with your requirements and give me the knowledge, skills and abilities required to excel in this role.

I appreciate your consideration and look forward to an opportunity to discuss this role with you. I will contact you next week to address any initial questions you may have.

Warmest regards,”
