How do I calculate my last working day?

From your resignation date, count two weeks (14 calendar days) forward; that date is typically your final day. If you enter today's date the tool computes a last day two weeks out, but always check your contract — some roles require a longer notice period.

Is it acceptable to resign by email?

A verbal conversation with your manager first is ideal, with the email serving as the written record. If in-person is not possible, a clear, polite resignation email is widely accepted. Keep it brief, professional, and free of complaints.

Should I explain why I'm leaving?

You are not obligated to. A short positive reason is fine, but detailed criticism is best saved for an exit interview, not the notice. The template keeps the focus on the facts and a graceful handover.

What is a transition offer?

It is a sentence stating you will help hand over your work — documenting projects, training a replacement, or wrapping up tasks. Offering this leaves a strong final impression and protects your professional reputation and references.

Is my information stored?

No. The email is generated in your browser and nothing is uploaded to a server. Copy it before closing the tab if you want to keep a copy.

A clean, professional exit in writing

How you resign shapes your references and your reputation long after you leave. A two-week notice email should be short, gracious, and unambiguous about your last day. This builder assembles exactly that — subject line, formal opening, clear final date, a note of thanks, and a transition offer — so you can leave on good terms without agonising over the wording.

How it works

The tool follows the standard structure of a professional resignation email. It generates a clear subject line, addresses your manager, states your intention to resign and your role, and specifies your last working day. If you enter your resignation date, it computes a last day two weeks (14 days) later and formats it for you. It then adds an optional gratitude line and a transition offer, and closes with a polite sign-off. The output is deliberately free of complaints or detail — a clean record that protects your relationships.

Tips and example

Tell your manager in person or on a call first where you can; send the email right after as the written record.
Double-check your notice period in your contract — two weeks is a norm, not a universal rule.
Keep gratitude genuine and brief. One sincere sentence beats a paragraph of effusive thanks.
Always include the transition offer. Helping with handover is the detail people remember when asked for a reference.
