Internal Promotion Announcement email template

Why does it matter?

Promotions are always worth celebrating. Aside from announcing the employee’s new position, promotion announcements can also inspire your team to work harder to achieve their goals and grow more as a result.

When to send?

Send this email to the whole team shortly after the employee’s promotion and start date are concluded internally. Once everything is sorted, sending the email will make things official.

What to include?

• The employee’s name and current position
• The employee’s new position
• A brief description of what qualified them for the promotion

Please keep in mind that this is a template. You may change it to suit your company's voice and tone.
