I don't know the agent, but from this description I know the job.
This would be the team I recently left in order to go back and do my
D.Phil. in Byzantine history. (That thing about wacky histories and
hobbies? Yeah.) Telecommuting might become an option after a while,
but I seriously doubt they'd want someone who was a telecommuter from
the start. The telecommuter in Raf's description worked onsite in New
York for a few years before he moved.
£100K would have to be total comp, not base salary, though, if it is
what they are really offering.
