Dear Mr. Foo,
I am writing to request a temporary assignment at the head
office
in Sydney. Mr. Fulman, our regional manager, asked me in person at the annual meeting last
month, if I was willing to fill up the Marketing Communications Manager position to assist with their year-long campaign for the newly opened resort. I intend to be there for six months, starting this
January 2024.
As for the current working arrangement in our office
, I have assigned an intern, Cindy Lim, to take charge of my duties. She will continue with the day-to-day graphic-related work and other tasks that I usually handle. We will arrange a regular meeting every morning to check on each task's completion, so rest assured, no task is backlogged.
I would also
like to seek your kind assistance in acting as her immediate supervisor in the office
while
I am away. I assure you that she could work independently, however
as she has only spent a short period of time in our office
, she might occasionally ask for help.
Thank you for your kind attention, it is much appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
Estrina K NataliSubmitted by twiggseducationbdg on
