Resignation letter template: resigning from a remote role
Resigning from a fully remote position, where the goodbye and the logistics both happen at a distance.
Dear [Manager name], Please accept this letter as formal notice of my resignation from my position as [Role] at [Company]. My last working day will be [Last working day]. Working remotely with this team has been a genuinely good chapter, and I am grateful for the trust that made it work across distances and time zones. That trust is exactly why I want this transition to be orderly. Before my final day I will document my projects, record walkthroughs of anything better shown than written, and schedule handover calls with the colleagues taking over my work. I will also coordinate with IT on returning company equipment and closing out my accounts, and I would appreciate instructions on the preferred shipping process. Thank you for your support during my time here. I wish the team every success ahead. Sincerely, [Your name]
Handing it in
- Ask early how equipment returns work, shipping labels and device wipes take longer than people expect.
- Record short screen walkthroughs for anything a document cannot capture.
- Book the goodbye calls yourself, on remote teams departures can otherwise pass in silence.
Check your actual contract for the notice period before naming a last day; documents beat folklore. The conversation with your manager comes before the letter, always.
