Well, I have passed the tests. So been asked to submit full application.
I have no idea about that, but that would be great as it's even nearer to where I live!!
They are temp jobs, but my temp job ends in March......
Do you work at Seaham though, fella?
I'm not allowed to tell you, once you're in you'll know why

really strange then that Waterview Park doesn’t feature at all in DWPs estate strategy
. Can you tell us which current buildings that currently house DWP staff are closing with the move to Waterview Park?Allegedly.

The desk space standards at BPV are far in excess of what they need to be in some areas. Bunk them up to create more space. DWP has an estates strategy that creates “hubs” for some of its corporate services - for example - digital and finance - elsewhere including Preston and Durham House. More space for HMRC to occupy when they leave BPV. Granted, the METRO will make a bomb cause there aren’t any car parking spaces - but you will all be nice and cosy at BPV.
