Dear Sir / Madam,

I am writing to apply for the position of group leader as advertised in yesterday’s College News. I am very enthusiastic about this position as I enjoy working with children.

I would be grateful if you would consider me for the post and I am able to attend an interview at any time. I look forward to receiving your reply.

Yours faithfully,

Anthony Milles.
