The message

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to express my strong interest in any product design opportunities that may be available at your organisation. I have been following your company for some time and am consistently impressed by the work you do and the values you represent.

I am a product designer with six years of experience across fintech, e-commerce and healthcare. Throughout my career I have developed a strong skill set in user research, interaction design, prototyping and design systems. I am a collaborative team player who thrives in fast-paced environments and I am passionate about creating user-centred experiences that drive business outcomes.

In my current role I have led the redesign of several key product surfaces, working cross-functionally with engineering and product stakeholders to deliver measurable improvements. I believe my experience would make me a valuable addition to your team.

I have attached my CV and portfolio for your review. I would welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background aligns with your needs.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Kind regards,
[your name]
