no you are not missing something, You can work full time for a Temp Agency, and maybe the X is moving to the corporate section of the Temp agency or to the corporate section of the business x is contracted to by the temp agency.
Valentin Alupoaie (asker) Aug 13, 2008:
Well, I didn't say that X has a temp job. He's an employee of a temp agency. Am I missing something?

X person is moving from a outside temp position to a corporate position

"X" is moving from the temp agency to work as an employee for the company (Corporate)

If "X" is an employee of a temp agency, and he/she is moving to 'corporate', it could well be that airmailrpl is exactly correct.
Note from asker:
Right. Thank you, this helps with my certainty level :)

will be working in the Corporate area of the company

if we just look at the language, it really doesn´t matter if X is a temp.

he was working in the department called Web Design
he will be working in the Corporate department (or office, or building, or floor, or section)

Web Design and Corporate are names given to areas within the organization.

Corporate usually means the Corporate offices, the area where the top executives work.

But a secretary, messenger, temp or cleaning person can also be assigned to this area...

moving to the group/team/department which handles corporate jobs

depending on what else is known about X's circumstances, here's another interpretation: X works FOR the temp agency.

At present, X handles job placements in web design (finding jobs for web designers); X is about to change to handling placements for workers in corporate/head-office positions (accounting departments, etc.).

Please excuse, I thought the person was a temp employee moving to corporate. I agree totally with "airmailrpl"
