Mr. Matthew Downing

Deputy British Ambassador to Indonesia and Timor Leste
British Embassy Jakarta
Jl. Patra Kuningan Raya Blok L5-6

Dear Mr. Matthew Downing

I am writing to express my sincere interest in the Translator position at the UK Embassy, as

advertised on LinkedIn. As a recent graduate with a Bachelor Of Law from
University Terbuka, I am eager to contribute my linguistic skills and cultural understanding to
the diplomatic mission of the embassy.

I am particularly drawn to this position because of my passion for languages and my

proficiency in English and French language. My academic background, coupled with practical
experience gained through internships and language exchange programs, has equipped me with
the necessary skills to facilitate effective communication in a diplomatic context.

During my academic journey, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to accuracy, attention

to detail, and cultural sensitivity in translation. These qualities, I believe, align seamlessly with
the requirements of the Translator position at the UK Embassy. Furthermore, my ability to
adapt quickly to new environments and my passion for fostering cross-cultural understanding
make me confident in my ability to excel in this role.

I am impressed by the UK Embassy's commitment to fostering international relations and

promoting cultural exchange. Joining your esteemed team would not only be a career
milestone for me but also an opportunity to contribute to the diplomatic efforts of the United
Kingdom.

I am excited about the prospect of bringing my language skills and dedication to the UK
Embassy and would welcome the chance to discuss in person how my qualifications make me
a strong fit for this position.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to further discuss
how my skills and experiences align with the goals of the UK Embassy.

Sincerely,

Mayang Sapitri
