Request for reference

Dear FIRST,

May I refer to you as my referee for a job that I am interested in? 

[Let me bring you up to date. After working with you at [Previous Company], I accepted a job in [Other Company] as [description of position]. Now after [number] years, I am eager to get started with a new company.]

Having worked with you for many years, you know my work attitude at work, as well as my strengths and skills better than anyone. I would appreciate your support in case someone wants to make an inquiry about me. 

I have enclosed a copy of my resume for your reference. Please let me know if there's any additional information you may need.
