To Whom It May Concern: I am pleased to write this recommendation on behalf of Shay Ryan. Shay had worked with Excellence Ltd for many years. As the sales manager of this company, I have seen Shay work studiously and with intelligence. He had established good relationships with his colleagues, and during his time in this company he has developed strong leadership and interpersonal skills that have been unanimously praised by colleagues. Shay worked very hard and progressed steadily within the business , revealing his passion and enthusiasm for all areas of the business in the process. He was promoted to Sales Manager. His duties involved managing the sales team, working closely with our companies principles and developing sales through all head office customers in Ireland. Shays talents were always evident in his performance. He displayed strong leadership abilities, logical thinking abilities, and the ability to work well with teams. He consistently completed tasks assigned by the management on time and without errors. In short, he was a integral member of our company. His performance at Excellence Ltd proves that he is fully capable of fulfilling most sales management roles. I would highly recommend Shay for any business Sales management role. I therefore offer my recommendation of Shay without reservation. If you have any questions or require further information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Yours sincerely, Paul Ivory Managing Director Excellence Ltd
