Dear Michelle,

I'm writing to formally notify you of my resignation from my position as Senior Designer at Nova, effective May 28th — two weeks from today.

Working here has genuinely been one of the highlights of my career. I'm especially grateful for the mentorship you've provided and the trust the team placed in me on the rebrand project.

I'm committed to a smooth transition and happy to document my workflows, brief my replacement, and complete any outstanding projects before my last day.

With gratitude,
Sam

Resignation Email FAQs

Common questions about how to resign professionally.

What should a resignation email include?

A resignation email should include: (1) a clear statement of your intent to resign, (2) your last working day, (3) a brief, genuine expression of gratitude, (4) an offer to help with the transition, and (5) a professional sign-off. Keep it positive — you may need this employer as a reference.

How much notice should I give when resigning?

Two weeks is the professional standard for most roles. Senior, specialized, or management positions often warrant 4 weeks or more. Check your employment contract for any minimum notice requirements.

Should I explain why I'm resigning in my email?

You're not obligated to. A brief, neutral reason is acceptable ('I've accepted another opportunity') but avoid negative feedback in the resignation email itself — save that for an exit interview if asked.

How do I resign without burning bridges?

Express genuine gratitude, offer a smooth transition, complete outstanding work, and stay professional until your last day. Your industry is smaller than you think — how you leave matters as much as how you arrived.

Can I resign via email?

Yes — especially if your manager is remote or you want a written record. For close in-person relationships, consider a face-to-face conversation first, followed immediately by a formal resignation email to document it.
