Joining GDS

Basically echoing what others have said. I've held off working in London forever, not wanting to spend a large portion of my day on a train. But then something like this comes along, with an opportunity to transform how Government delivers services (work on stuff that matters), and working with a ridiculously talented set of people. Chances like that don't come along often. It's going to be an exciting ride, and I'm grateful to my wife and kids for letting me get on.
