Subject: Resignation — [Your Name] Dear [Manager Name], I'm writing to formally notify you of my resignation from my position as [Job Title] at [Company], effective [date — typically 2 weeks from now]. This wasn't an easy decision. I've genuinely valued my time here and am grateful for the opportunities I've had, especially [specific experience or growth]. The work we've done on [specific project] is something I'm particularly proud of. I'm committed to making this transition as smooth as possible. During my remaining time, I'm happy to: - Complete [current project/handoff] - Document my processes and responsibilities - Help train whoever takes over my role Thank you for your leadership and support over the past [duration]. I wish you and the team continued success. Best regards, [Your Name]
💡 Pro Tip
Always resign in person or via video call first — then follow up with the email as a formal record. Keep it positive regardless of your actual feelings — you might need this reference in the future.
📌 When to Use This Template
When leaving your current job. Send this email AFTER your in-person conversation with your manager, as a formal record.
