Dear Name of Immediate Supervisor:

The purpose of this letter is to resign from my employment with Company Name. My last day is (two weeks from the date of the letter).

I am resigning from my current employment because I have been offered and accepted a position that will give me supervisory responsibilities. The new position also affords me the opportunity to begin working in a company that serves customers globally. International experience is a key goal of mine in the future, as you know.

I will miss working with you very much as you have provided me with many opportunities to both learn and contribute. Your coaching and support have been invaluable to my progress. I will also miss many of my coworkers and customers and take many positive memories with me to my new employment.

Again, best wishes for a positive future. Please call on me if there is anything I can do to help ease the transfer of my work to other employees or to help train your new employee.

Again, I am excited about my new opportunity, but sad to leave.

Sincerely,

Employee Signature
