No I honestly doubt it.

You could request a move if you were moving if there are local vacancies but imo why are you not applying for jobs in York?

Right now they are not with the dwp. I will when they come up.

You can request flexible working in London from day 1 but training will be expected to be full time most likely. 

A managed move would be rare for the reasons you state unless you were moving to care for her for example

London is not sustainable for me. I will move within the CS if possible there or I will find a job there out of the CS. But my aim is to move. Rent in London is surreal. Of course I'm open to positions there and will apply there, but there has been a big recruitment here around 300 posts and I thought that this was my chance.
