Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to apply for the position of earning a place on the prestigious Jaguar Land Rover Finance
degree apprenticeship. JLR’s vision and future plans, coupled with this opportunity, aligns perfectly
with my career aspiration of making a sustainable impact within the world of finance and the world
generally, whilst providing an optimal output. I believe that the relationship between the firm’s goals
and my personal goals will make me an instrumental member of the JLR family.

This position excites me due to its project-like work structure, the versatility of the role and knowing
that every operation performed will have a direct impact on the business, this makes me feel valued
and motivated to keep on producing an exemplary output. I come from a budgeting background,
where my parents had to use their finances meticulously but still managed to ensure us a more than
adequate lifestyle, and as I grew older, I took this responsibility upon myself. What I lack in
experience I make up for in my holistic knowledge of finance. I believe that this technical knowledge
and skill, partnered with my unending willingness to learn in various practical environments, will
allow me to proactively learn from this experience with JLR.

With a strong and improved fiscal year forecasted, I hope to be part of the team in producing an
even better output in years to come, whilst aiming to be financially sustainable with the main goal of
being carbon net zero by 2039. I believe that I am a fast learner, and what I learn quickly, I can apply
quickly. In addition to this I am a very able problem solver, skilled communicator, innovative thinker
with excellent interpersonal ability, all of which are an important part of the role of bringing a fresh
perspective to different areas of the business.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I am happy to supply any further information required. I
look forward to meeting the JLR team.

Yours faithfully,

Ryan Goverdhan Sharma
