COVER LETTER

  • Dear Barks & Recreation Team
  • I’m excited to apply for the Operations Coordinator role because yes, I do love dogs and spreadsheets. With six years of experience managing schedules, client coordination, and team support in residential construction, I’m ready to bring that same structured calm and people-first mindset to your pet care mission. I’ve worked closely with pet-owning clients, grown up with animals myself, and know how to navigate shifting priorities with empathy and clarity. I’m familiar with tools like Google Workspace, Airtable, Discord, and MarketSharp, and I’m a fast learner ready to pick up anything I don’t know yet. From onboarding teammates to streamlining daily workflows, I’d love the chance to help Barks & Recreation thrive behind the scenes and be part of something that genuinely makes tails wag.
  • Warm regards
  • Benjamin Pickowitz
