How much notice do executives tend to give or is it usually a discussion? This is my first time in a C-level role but the last time I was in an executive position (SVP), I gave 2 weeks notice and was told that that was too short so I stayed for 4. 😅

For context, I’m in the US but work for an international business (boss is in UK). Thanks for any advice!

My contract as an EVP says 3 months

Ditto reciprocal 3 month notice period

Wow! 3 months seems so long. My contract says 14 days but that seems relatively short for team size, continuity, etc. When the time comes, I’ll likely offer a month or 6 weeks and see what they say. Thank you!

I suppose it depends on industry, size of company, and if you manage clients. 3 months gives time to find a solution and communicate a plan. In a client service business, 2 weeks could be detrimental to the company you’re leaving.

My contract has a 6 month notice period both ways. I thought it was crazy, but European company. I presume if I replace myself all things are negotiable
