Notice period

A notice period is the time an employee must keep working — or remain employed — between resigning and actually leaving, set by their contract and often longer for senior roles.

Notice periods, sometimes combined with gardening leave, determine how soon a new employer can bring a hire on board — a practical factor in any senior search timeline.
