Employment acceptance confirmation email

Once you have been offered the job verbally you should be sent the final offer of employment in writing. This usually precedes the actual employment contract. Often you are asked to simply sign the letter of employment to indicate your acceptance of the job offer and return it to the company. It is a good idea to send an email confirming that you have received the written job offer and have signed and sent it back. This way the employer knows that the employment process is proceeding correctly. It is important to note that a job offer is not binding until it has been communicated in writing.

Dear Mrs Green

I received your formal job offer earlier today. I have read through it carefully, signed it and sent it back to you as requested. As suggested I have kept the second copy.

Thank you again for giving me this exciting opportunity. I look forward to starting employment with ABC Company on November 3, 2008 and to becoming a member of such a dynamic team.

If there is any additional information or paperwork you need please let me know.

Regards
