I am currently working in a small office & have been offered another job. How do i hand in my notice?

Answer 1

If its a small office, i would have a quiet word with your boss to explain the situation and then formally hand in your notice in writing. Good luck with the new job!

Answer 2

Small offices tend to be more close knit and social...I'd personally speak with the manager or supervisor which ever is the case, and discuss the opportunity I have and express sincere regret that after much consideration you've decided to accept the challenges that the new position will offer you.

Express the pleasure working with the manager and staff have brought you and the experience that you have gained from being a part of the staff. You will certainly miss everyone and you would be more than willing to train a suitable candidate to replace you if they would find that beneficial.

Then mention that you will be providing written notice (usually 2 weeks, longer if you are a long time employee...usually a week for every 2 years worked, i.e. 8 year employee would provide 4 weeks notice etc).

Usually bosses are very accommodating but some (like a boss I had), actually fall over in their chair :) and don't want to see you leave. Don't be surprised then, if you are a key employee, that they offer you some incentive to consider staying.

Most likely they will be very understanding and things will go smoothly...if handled in a diplomatic and sincere manner and one that doesn't leave them scrambling to fill your spot.

Good luck now and in your new position!

Answer 3

Prepare a letter stating you have decided to leave the company but thank them for all the opportunities they have offered in the past and wish them the very best etc etc. Then go talk to your manager and say that you are going to leave and if they ask why then say it's because you have been offered another job that you feel would be beneficial to your career etc etc. then give them the letter so it's all official.

Answer 4

Just type a professional letter stating that its your resignation and the notice period you are giving and address it to your boss and deliver it to him/her.

If you feel this is a little abrupt you can do what I did and actually talk to your manager and just explain that you will be resigning and then follow that up with the letter. I had a good working realtionship with my manager so its up to you to decide whats best depending on the circumstance.

Good Luck!

Answer 5

Basically, just write a letter explaining everything, and state that you are giving 1 week, 2 weeks, or a months notice (what ever it says in your contract. and address it your current boss. Its a common thing, he / she will be fairly used to it.

Answer 6

2 ways: you can email ur resignation letter to ur boss (if he/she is not in the office alot) or u can go into their office, explain the situation and hand them letter. if you google resignation letter it will give u sample to go by on how to write one (thats what i did for my letter i turned in a couple of months ago) good luck with new job, hopes its everything that u wanted.
