King Mei Lau

My family has just relocated back to Sydney 5 years ago. I have become a housewife since my daughter was born and she is studying year 7 in high school in 2021. As she has grown up more, I would like to resume my career life so I could earn additional income to nourish my daughter and it’s time for me to contribute to the community.

I have just finished an accounting course in two months called Certificate IV in Accounting and bookkeeping in TAFE OTEN in order to strengthen my accounting and bookkeeping knowledge although I have studied 2 accounting subjects in University before.

I graduated from the University of New South Wales major in Information System and minor in Economics and I have about 9 years working experience from medium to multinational corporations.

-      3 years in Hong Kong: in the area of systems administration and customer service

-      2 years in Sydney and 4 years in Hong Kong: as a personal assistant, secretary and  administrator

To consider myself for the opportunity offered, by finishing CERTIFICATE IV in two months can prove that I am a fast learner and efficient worker as this course is supposed to finish in 5-6 months. With my previous experience and exposures in supporting the multi-national organization, I believe I can easily and rapidly adapt to change and become productive in relatively short period of time. With the secretarial and administrative experience, background and formal IT training I gained, I believe I would be a motivated team player with minimal supervision. In addition, I could multi-task and work under pressure to meet short deadline. Besides, I have good organizational, proven oral and written communication skills and am able to liaise effectively with staff at all levels.

To sum up, my major strengths and achievements are as follows:

·        Finished Certificate IV in 2 months

·        Experienced in multi-national multi-billion enterprise

·        Secretarial support to directors, managers including diary management

·        Administrative support to marketing and technical departments, eg. IT, electrical and mechanical engineering

·        Computer literate with strong MS Word, PowerPoint and Excel skills

·        Multi-lingual background: fluent in Cantonese, English and Mandarin

·        Good organizational and communication skills

·        Good phone manner, self-motivation and attention to details

·        Database management

·        Multi-task mindset

·        Provided quality customer services to both internal and external customers

·        Strong team player with exposure to Y2K projects

·        Exposure to ISO9000 practice/standards and document control

Enclosed is my resume for your perusal and I hope you can find the high caliber within. Finally, thank you for reading through the cover letter and I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours Sincerely,

May Lau
