Dear <enter recipient's name here>,

As required by my contract of employment, I hereby give you <enter notice period here> weeks' notice of my intention to leave my positon as <enter job title here>.

I have decided that it is time to move on and I have accepted a position elsewhere. This was not an easy decision to make and took a lot of consideration. However, I am confident that my new role will help me to move towards some of the goals I have for my career.

I understand that my notice period is <enter notice period here> weeks, but I would like to join my new employer at the earliest date possible. Therefore, I would like to request that you waive this notice period and relieve me of my duties immediately. Please be assured that I will do all I can to assist in the smooth transfer of my responsibilities before leaving.

I wish both you and <enter company name here> every good fortune and I would like to thank you for having me as part of your team.

Yours sincerely,
