What your manager and HR need

  1. The essentials in the first lines: that you are resigning, your job title and your last working day.
  2. A last day that respects the notice period in your contract.
  3. A short, sincere thank-you and an offer to help with the handover.
  4. No complaints and no long reasons: the letter stays in your file, and you may need a reference.
  5. Tell your manager in person first, then send the letter the same day.
