Sure, it may sit in the depths of HR until the end of time, but you can be sure of two things: One, your former boss (and future reference) will read it and be impressed. Obviously, feel free to adjust this a bit based on your experience and your company culture, then submit it via the typical procedures at your company. I wish you all the best, and look forward to keeping in touch. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance during this transition. It’s been a wonderful experience to work for such a great company and help in solving Larry and Keets’ mission to provide better financial support for older employees. I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunities I’ve been provided working on the Operations team for the past four years. I’ve recently received an offer to serve as an executive assistant at a small startup, and after careful consideration I’m excited to explore this new path in my career journey. I’m writing to give my formal notice that I’ll be leaving my role as Office Manager for Larry and Keets Financial Partners on July 31. I wish the company continued success, and I hope to stay in touch in the future. Please let me know if there’s anything else I can do to help during this transition.

I’ll do everything possible to wrap up my duties and train other team members over the next two weeks. I’ve greatly enjoyed and appreciated the opportunities I’ve had to grow our sales team and pipeline, be a part of creating a great product, and work with my fellow colleagues, and I’ve learned so much about marketing strategy and the digital media space, which I will certainly take with me throughout my career.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to work in this position for the past six years. Please accept this letter as formal notification that I am resigning from my position as Account Executive with Marketing Media. Want to put this all together and see what it looks like in practice? We’ve written a couple letter of resignation samples for you to work off of.
