Whats a good cold email when looking for FT jobs?

When I networked for Junior SA roles, I found it easier because I wasnt expected to have much experience. Now when Im looking for FT roles, Im having trouble deciding how I should introduce myself in the initial email. I'm thinking this..

My name is x. This summer I worked as a SA in x. I'm interested in your job, can we arrange a time to speak, blah, blah...

Its short and quick to the point ( at least I think so)

any other recommendations?
