The job hopefuls will also give “general guidance and support.”

The new hire will also be in charge of calculating budding Bonds’ holiday allowances.

Fictitious movie character 007 is famous for his flirtatious attitude at work which could be a HR issue in the real world.

The job will be based with MI5 in London, but also at GCHQ in Cheltenham, as reported by Need To Know.
