When an employee receives a promotion, it's typically announced in a job promotion letter. This is a formal communication between the company and the employee being promoted, briefly acknowledging the new role and outlining its place in the reporting structure.
It's also a chance for the employer, via their representative in human resources, to offer congratulations to an employee who has grown along with the organization. Here is a template of a promotion offer mail:
