Dear <name>,
As required by my contract of employment, I hereby give you four weeks’ notice of my intention to leave my position as Researcher.
I have decided that its time to move on and have accepted a position elsewhere. This was not an easy decision and took a lot of consideration. However, I’m confident that my new role will help me move towards some of the goals I have for my career.
Please be assured that I’ll do all I can to assist in the smooth transfer of my responsibilities before leaving.
I wish both you and <place of work> every good fortune and I would like to thank you for having me as part of your team.
Yours sincerely,
<me>
what do you think...yay or nay?
