Dear [Recipient Name]:

I am writing to request a promotion. My responsibilities have grown significantly since I was hired [number] years ago, and I believe that this fact and the quality of my work warrant a raise.

My current position is [current job title]; however, for the last year I have been performing all of the duties of a [job title you are requesting] without having the job title or, of course, being paid commensurate with it. My responsibilities and achievements that call for a promotion include:

[Responsibility or achievement exceeding your current position]

[Responsibility or achievement exceeding your current position]

[Responsibility or achievement exceeding your current position]

[Responsibility or achievement exceeding your current position]

Based on the feedback that I have received, I believe that you and your manager think I have been performing excellently the duties of this higher position. I expect that you will give my request all due consideration as soon as possible.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
