Use ContractsCounsel to draft this LOI!
A transfer department letter of intent is a formal request written by an employee to management requesting a transfer to another part of the organization. The delivery of such a letter is common in situations wherein the employee is either unhappy at their current position or anticipating moving residences. They would like to continue employment with the company in a different branch/location.
It should be noted that if the employee is bound to an agreement, it may take a financial offering by the employee to get out of the employment contract. Letters of this nature are intended to be persuasive and informative, highlighting why a transfer would benefit the company and what the employee has accomplished thus far to deserve a position in a new department or location.

Dear Courtney Patel,
I, James T Worthington, am formally requesting that I be transferred from my position as Human Resources Advisor to the position of Head of Customer Relations. My request to transfer within the department is due to my increased knowledge base and skill set. I have worked at my position for seven (7) years, and I have been able to benefit the company during my employment by significantly decreasing employee turnover, ensuring quality interpersonal relationships between staff members, and implementing evaluation techniques wherein company salespersons can be accurately assessed on their performance.
My time spent working with the organization has been extremely rewarding, and I am truly appreciative of the experience I have gained thus far. I believe that a transfer would benefit the company greatly as the new position is well-suited to my current skill set and would enable me to continue to develop as an employee.
I thank you for your consideration and look forward to continuing my growth with this company. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you require more information.
Sincerely,
