A promotion is something to be celebrated, whether you are the promoted employee or the company boss. It means that the employee is very hardworking and worthy of the new job.

To publicize the promotional success of the employee in a very special way, the company must send a Letter of Transfer or Promotion Confirmation.

A Letter of Transfer or Promotion Confirmation is a good company memo especially if the management already told the employee first hand. The letter must be formal and short but very inspirational for the employee to continue his work.

It is also best to include in the letter the new job title, the new annual salary, the person who will be taking his former job and the new office location if any. Add the congratulatory remarks and the last paragraph of the letter.

This is an example of a letter of a promotion and relocation:
