The template

This letter confirms an offer of employment to a returning employee. It records the role and compensation for the new period of employment, and states explicitly how prior service with the Company is treated, so nothing about the return is left to assumption. It becomes binding on the conditions stated once both parties sign.

1. Welcome back — the role

Company name (the "Company") is pleased to offer Candidate full name the position of Role title, reporting to Manager name and title. Your expected start date is Start date, or another date the parties agree to in writing.

2. Prior service

  1. Your previous employment with the Company is summarized here: Prior service summary.
  2. The extent to which prior service counts toward tenure-based entitlements — such as paid-time-off accrual tiers, service awards, or eligibility windows — is stated here: Service credit terms. Only what is written in that field carries over; entitlements not listed restart from your new start date.
  3. This is a new period of employment. Except for the service credit stated above, the terms of your previous employment, including any prior agreements that ended when you left, do not carry over unless restated in writing.

3. Compensation

  1. Base salary of Base salary and currency per year, paid according to the Company's regular payroll schedule and subject to applicable withholdings.
  2. Any bonus, commission, or equity component is described here: Variable compensation summary. If none applies, this field should say "none". Awards from your previous employment that lapsed on departure are not reinstated by this letter.

4. Benefits and time off

You will be eligible for the Company's standard benefits and paid-time-off programs as in effect from time to time, subject to each plan's own eligibility and waiting-period rules and to any service credit stated in clause 2. Benefit plans are governed by their own terms and may change; this letter does not promise any specific plan.

5. Work location

Your primary work location will be Work location. Any remote or hybrid arrangement follows the Company's remote work policy.

6. Conditions of this offer

  1. This offer is contingent on satisfactory completion of any background or reference checks the Company lawfully requires, even if checks were completed during your previous employment.
  2. You confirm that accepting this role does not breach any obligation you owe to another employer, and that you will not bring or use any third party's confidential material.
  3. You will be asked to sign the Company's current standard confidentiality and intellectual property agreement on or before your start date; earlier versions you signed do not substitute for it.

7. Nature of this letter

This letter summarizes the offer and is not a contract for a fixed term of employment. The terms of ongoing employment, including how either party may end it, are governed by the employment agreement and the law of the applicable jurisdiction.

8. Accepting the offer

To accept, sign below by Offer expiry date. If unsigned by that date, the offer lapses automatically.
