Dear Mr. McEnroe,
First of all I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for accommodating me as a member of the Project Green team. I have been working with the team for the last four years during which I have been able to learn extensively.
After having acquired the required knowledge, I consider that the time has come when I need to move upwards in position. Moving up will help me implement my learning to the advantage of the company. At this stage of my career a promotion would be very motivating for me and encourage me to put in more towards the prosperity of the company.
I pledge my dedication and sincerity to the company and remain optimistic that the company will offer me a break in serving the company in a better position.
Thanking you,
Yours Sincerely,
(June Richardson)
