Top N slicer to work with each drill down

Hi,

 

I am working on a visual showing top n at different levels of a hierarchy, currently at the top level of the hierarchy i have this measure to allow the user to adjust using a slicer how many results are displayed:

 

TopN Directorate =
VAR SelectedTop = SELECTEDVALUE('TopN'[TopN])
RETURN
SWITCH(TRUE(),
    SelectedTop = 0, [Count of Competency for Passed Fit Test],
    RANKX (
            ALLSELECTED(  'Use Sheet'[Directorate] ),
            [Count of Competency for Passed Fit Test]
                )
                  <= SelectedTop,
        [Count of Competency for Passed Fit Test]
)
 
When i drill down from directorate to the next level which is service i would still like the top n slicer to work and so on with each level of the hierarchy. I'm hoping it'll be a simple asjustment to the measure i am currently using.
 
Fairly new to PowerBI and struggling to find a solution as i am inexperienced with DAX, any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks
