Since you are moving for work then you will be able to use the Partial Exclusion on any gain on the sale of your residence.
If you lived in the home for 1 year then your partial exclusion is 12/24 of the gain on the sale.
So if Single the exclusion would be $125,000 and if Married Filing Jointly and both of you lived in the home the exclusion would be $250,000.
