Dear Patagonia Hiring Team,

As a strategic-thinking Sustainability Specialist with 2 years of experience and I'd love to join your team, as seen on Indeed. In my current position Implemented a waste reduction program that decreased company waste by 30% over the last year and now I'm excited to continue my journey by contributing and growing at Patagonia.

Here’s why I believe I'd be a perfect fit for the position:



First, I’ve always been intellectually curious about comprehending how thing work in the Environmental Services sector. As a Sustainability Specialist at Tesla, I wanted to push myself and understand each specific of my day to day.

Before starting my career, I've obtained a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science at University of California, Berkeley. These academic skills were the foundations which helped me to become the go-to person to ask about conducting sustainability assessments and audits.

Second, I have plenty of experience developing and implementing sustainability initiatives. At Tesla, I’ve managed delicate situations related to preparing sustainability reports for internal and external stakeholders and been successful at meeting approaching deadlines where I had to think quickly on my feet. As the company scaled, I’ve taken increased responsabilities including mentoring and helping newcomers adapt to company culture.

Finally, I am excited about Patagonia's vision and core values. As a passionate and proactive Sustainability Specialist, I recognize the importance of working in a company with a committed to environmental stewardship.

I am genuinely excited about the opportunity to contribute to Patagonia, and I am ready to commit to the high standards and ambitions your team upholds. Thank you for considering my application.


Sincerely,
