The template, in full
Offer of employment, [Position]
Dear [Employee name], we are delighted to offer you the position of [Position] at [Your company]. The panel was unanimous, and the work you did on the take home task is the reason. This letter sets out the main terms so you can make a decision on them. The full employment contract is attached and is the document that binds us both.
The role
What you will be paid
Leave and conditions
What is not in this offer. There is no car allowance, no phone allowance and no equity in the company at this level. A laptop, a monitor for home and a desk allowance of $600 in the first month are provided, and that is the whole of the equipment arrangement. We would rather you knew that now than found out in week two.
This offer depends on three things
Please do not resign until all three are cleared. The offer is conditional until we confirm in writing that the three checks above are complete, which usually takes about five business days from acceptance. Handing in a resignation before that confirmation arrives puts you at risk, and no candidate has ever been asked to.
What happens next
If anything here is not what you expected, call [Contact name] on [Phone] before you sign. A question about salary, start date or working from home will not count against you, and we would rather answer it now than in your third month.
To accept, sign below, sign the attached contract, and return both to [Email] by 5pm on [Date]. We are looking forward to having you on the team.
I accept the offer of employment set out in this letter and in the attached contract, on the terms described, and confirm that the information I provided during recruitment is true.
