Thanks, it's been very intense because the process is naturally very long (sensitive role) but the approval process after the initial salary offer is taking a while too and I hope it really goes through because the interviews and tests weren't easy.

I don't want to elaborate much about the actual position but it's in a defence-based agency within the civil service that's not a stat board like DSO/DSTA and it's located within Science Park, so it's probably easy to guess. It should be under the MX scheme.
