Whether you\u2019re excited or you\u2019ve been dreading it, remember to tread carefully. The charity sector is a small world. As a minimum you need a good reference, and chances are your path will cross with some of your colleagues\u2019 again in the future.

You don\u2019t want to risk them overhearing it on the office grapevine. Giving them the heads up means they can then start planning how to fill your role and cover the vacancy in the meantime. You\u2019ll also need to write a formal resignation letter of course, but it\u2019s polite and professional to explain in person in the first instance.\r\n\r\nOnce your manager has given you the go-ahead, you can tell your team and colleagues you work closely with. Give people as much notice as you can, so they can prepare for your departure and get anything they may need from you. It\u2019s good etiquette to tell anyone you work closely with in person, but it\u2019s also fine to send an email to the wider office, if your manager hasn\u2019t done so already."},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","menu_title":"Give your best in your notice period","content":"<h2><strong>Give your best in your notice period<\/strong><\/h2>\r\nIt\u2019s important to still work hard and give your best during your notice period, whether that\u2019s two weeks or three months. Don\u2019t coast or stop caring if you want to keep your reputation intact. While you may not always have control over it, consider the timing. If you\u2019re in the middle of an important project, then offer to stay long enough to see it through, if you can. Or, if you can\u2019t, think through and plan how much of it you can do in your notice period and how much could be covered by others.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-13220\" src=\"https:\/\/charityjob.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/neonbrand-y_6rqStQBYQ-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Two men in an office sitting at a table.

You can also use online tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.awesomescreenshot.com\/\">Awesome Screenshot<\/a> to record your screen to demonstrate how to do things.

Invite them out for a coffee or lunch to say goodbye and suggest keeping in touch.\r\n\r\nYou could send an email to colleagues you\u2019ve worked most closely with, saying goodbye and giving your contact details.

Send a thank you note for your send-off and any cards or leaving gifts. You may want to personally thank your head of department or chief executive on your last day, as well as your team.
