Dear Ms. Larue:

 

I gladly accept the position and the terms of employment for the Director of International Marketing. I had a great first meeting with Samantha Jones and look forward to working and learning together under her influence.

 

I have carefully looked over the contract and the job description, and fully accept the conditions offered. But. I am a little concerned about the start date. As you know. I am currently living in England, and I have slightly underestimated the amount of time I need to organize the move and get my affairs in order. So, is it possible for me to start on the 30th of October? Please let me know if this is feasible. I hope that this is not a giant inconvenience for you. Also, I have arranged an apartment in Melbourne, but I need someone to pick up the keys this week. Could you find someone to do this for me?

 

Sincerely,

Dale Evans
