SUBJECT: Approval to Assume Administrative Assistant Position
Sherrie, with pleasure I’d like to approve your request to assume the position of administrative assistant, effective March, 1, 19—, with a salary increase of $2,000. You will continue to report to me.
After you settle into the job along the lines of those duties outlined in your memo, I’ll be asking you to assume other tasks to help with routine correspondence from my office. I also think your suggestion that we contact Cindy Hoffman to assume the typing, filing, and duplicating tasks is a good one and will ask that as your first duty you contact Cindy about her interests. In the event she is unavailable or uninterested in the move, please arrange to contact Personnel for their recommendations in hiring a replacement.
Thanks for reminding me what significant contributions you have made to the department during the past two years. I do particularly value your initiative in restructuring the filing system and also your willingness to relieve the surveyors of the “routine” matters as you have had the time. As I mentioned in your last performance appraisal, you are the kind of dependable employee we’d like to keep.
