You do not need an addressee for a covering letter, in this case you are welcome to use general terms.

You should compile a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, the last certificate of your university or school education and relevant professional references or samples (if available) in a pdf document. If you wish, you can also attach a recent photograph.

However, the total size of the pdf should not exceed 10 MB!

As a rule, these are vacancies that are to be filled at the earliest possible date. Otherwise, this is explicitly stated in the job advertisement.
