Cover letter

Dear Hiring Team at Northbridge Freight,

I'm applying for the Operations Coordinator role. For the past six years I've kept a busy restaurant group running on time, and much of that work was logistics: getting the right goods to three sites, on schedule, with the right people ready to receive them.

Your vacancy mentions route planning, driver scheduling and supplier communication. At Harbour Kitchen Group I coordinate more than 40 deliveries a week and plan rotas for 35 people. When late deliveries became a problem, I set up a shared calendar with suppliers and cut missed slots from nine a month to two. I'd like to apply the same approach to your delivery schedules.

I'm comfortable with Excel and scheduling software and learn new systems quickly. I'd welcome the chance to discuss how my experience could support your operations team.

Kind regards, Daniel Moreno

Client: Daniel Moreno, moving from hospitality management into logistics. Target vacancy: Operations Coordinator at Northbridge Freight, a regional delivery company.

About this service

German employers expect a Lebenslauf in a clear tabular form: personal details, then experience and education in reverse order with month and year, skills with language levels on the CEFR scale (A1 to C2), and often a place, date and signature at the end. We write it in German or English, as the job requires, along with an Anschreiben, the German cover letter, which follows its own structure and tone and is addressed to a named contact where you have one. We also advise what to leave out, such as a photo or date of birth, which are customary but no longer required.

What is included

  • What you getA Lebenslauf in German tabular format, an Anschreiben depending on the package, and in Premium the same CV in a second language (German or English). You get it as text on the order page and as a Word (.docx) or PDF file.

Questions and answers

Do I need a photo on my Lebenslauf?

It is still common but not required, and many employers now prefer CVs without one. We leave a place for it only if you want it.

Will the German read naturally?

We write in clear, correct business German. Since an Anschreiben is a personal letter, read it through and adjust any phrases you would not use yourself.

Does a Europass CV work in Germany?

It is accepted, but many German employers prefer a classic Lebenslauf. We have a separate Europass service if you need that format.
