Dear Name

Re: Post Title and Reference Number 

I am delighted that you have chosen to accept the University’s offer of employment and I am looking forward to welcoming you into your new role.

[Retain the following paragraph only if right to work documentation has already been checked and copied.] On your first day, which we have agreed will be date, you should arrive at time. Please come to location and ask for Name. 

[Retain the following paragraph only if right to work documentation has NOT yet been checked and copied.] Before you can start work, we must check and take copies of documents demonstrating your right to work in the United Kingdom. On your first day, which we have agreed will be date, you should arrive at time. Please come to location and ask for Name. They will take a copy of your right to work documentation and then afterwards take you to Name2 at time2, when you will start work.

Please find enclosed the following documents, which I hope you will find helpful:
•	A schedule of local induction activities that have been planned for you in your first week
•	A location map
•	Pension information 
•	[List any other documents provided] 

[Retain the next two paragraphs only if an external applicant; delete if not applicable.] At a later date, you will receive an invitation to a central induction event which will introduce you to the University, give you an opportunity to meet other new employees and provide you with information on what services, support and facilities are available. Once you have started work and you have your University log-in (CRSid) and Raven password, you will be able to complete the University “Induction Online” which provides an overview of the University, including what to expect from induction and essential information along with some background on the history and traditions. You will be able to find this at http://www.ppd.admin.cam.ac.uk/

In the meantime, please see our induction pages on the University website which contain further information on what working at the University can offer you, including staff benefits and practical information about relocating and living in to Cambridge. www.induction.admin.cam.ac.uk. 

I hope that I have provided you with all of the information you need before your first day but please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any queries. 

Yours sincerely
