Promotion Announcement Email

  •  

A promotion announcement email is an official correspondence which details the promotion of an employee in an organization and informs every staff member of the same. Such emails are typically circulated by the HR Manager and include certain key points.

While the employee being promoted might already be aware (due to evaluations and interviews), the email can also be addressed to him/her with the rest of the staff copied. Or you could simply send the email out to everyone in your workplace.

Here we will show you how professionals write promotion announcement emails and also provide you with a sample and a template you can follow.
