Ending Employment

[mattoc66]

Ive been offered a new job with a different company after 20 years with my present employer. I have to give my present employer written notice of ending my employment with them. Ive never had to write one of these notices before and is there anyone out there who can advise me what I should put in my letter of terminatin of employment? many thanks in advance

I normally write something like..

Dear ?

I am writing to you today to give you ? notice of my intent to leave your employ. I have enjoyed my time at ? but feel that it is now time for me to move to pastures new.

I appreciate all you have done for me over the years.

My last working day will be ?

Yours

.....

It does not have to be flowery

Ditto the above, totally.

You can explain your reasonings in a 'Resignation interview'. I am sure your employers will be most grateful for your years of loyal service and sad to see you go.

You deserve an EXTREMELY nice leaving present after 20 years!

Good luck to you.
