Business Administration Student | Aspiring Operations Specialist
Mittelland Commerce Solutions AG
Dear Hiring Team,
I am writing to express my strong interest in the Business Operations Intern position at Mittelland Commerce Solutions AG. As a Business Administration undergraduate at Bern University of Applied Sciences, I have focused my studies on process optimization and quantitative methods while gaining direct practical experience in operations coordination. The opportunity to assist your team with workflow analysis, inventory monitoring, and operational reporting aligns closely with my academic foundation and professional interests.
In my current role as a part-time Operations Support Assistant at AareLogistics Services AG, I contribute to daily operational efficiency by maintaining inventory and warehouse utilization tracking sheets in Excel to support weekly capacity planning meetings. In addition, I audit bi-weekly vendor invoices against purchase orders, identifying discrepancy patterns that helped reduce payment processing delays by 15%, and have drafted standard operating procedures for incoming freight intake to facilitate onboarding for seasonal staff. This experience has reinforced my attention to detail, reconciliation practices, and ability to translate operational data into clear documentation.
My academic coursework and applied projects have further developed my problem-solving capabilities in supply chain and operational planning. During my Workflow Optimization Capstone project earlier this year, I mapped order fulfillment workflows for an e-commerce pilot, identifying two redundant verification handoffs, and modeled labor allocation scenarios using Excel solver tools to balance warehouse staffing during peak shipping windows. Combined with my Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) credential, this background has prepared me to quickly adapt to your operating procedures and support day-to-day team coordination.
I welcome the opportunity to discuss how my background in operational support, process mapping, and administrative tracking can contribute to the operations team at Mittelland Commerce Solutions AG. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Julian Steiner
