I would go for it.  I was in the same situation about ten months ago when I was told by my line manager about an upcoming job.

You can go through the application process and see if the job is sold to you in a way that makes you want it.  If all else fails, you can simply turn it down and you're no worse off.

i was offered the job as site foreman once for a company, i didnt want it because of all the crap that went with it (contract mangers balls up and pass the buck, continuosly) 2 days later i was told i had no more work as i didnt seem that bothered about my job, my mistake. i have since worked again for the company on various contracts. and not !!! as site foreman may i add.

Going from experience i would take the job if i was in your position. your boss must have great  confidence in you and a lot of trust.  to personally have his backing i would feel more confident in my job as well. hopefully biiger salary for the missus to spend for you lol    :y

what is the job?

Tactical Team Leader for the income protection team

I work in the gambling industy and I am at the moment a mere 1st line software engineer but I am the only person in the firm (UK atleast) that has as ever worked out in the field so to speak in the gambling trade (Casino's and bookies), Ive also a huge security and law enforcement back ground, and for the last 4 months Ive been working with the Income protection team teaching them and there new staff how things realy work out there, how to interview staff correctly (think most of them have just watched the Bill for a week...) and other stuff you cant see from a computer screen andprint outs, Ive also taken the lead on several high profile cases in the UK ad Europe.

Had another chat with the Boss yesterday as I saw the base requirements for the job, out of the 10 "must have's" I have 1 :(

He told me "I wrote the requirements, and I've already seen your CV, I wouldn't back you if I didn't think your up for it" :)

So sod it, I'm off for it, at worse some one else will get it and there will be a opening for there job.
