I have been contacted by a recruiter for a VP PE ops role at a Private Equity firm. I have Controllership Experience for many years and have some experience with portfolio owned companies. Pretty solid on the Accounting side. Any thoughts on how the hours could be and would accounting heavy experience (16 years) do well in a PE ops role? Is the transition from Accounting/Advisory consulting possible to PE ops?

I’ve been in TA for 10 years and have been wanting to be an HRBP for 2 years now. My prior company had no interest in helping me develop and started with a new company 4 months ago. I was transparent from the start that I wanted to leave TA and was told I could do that within my first year. I’m receiving signs that I’ll, once again, be pigeonholed in TA. I’ve done talent management, DEI, engagement, but my lack of direct BP experience and TA titles keep me pigeonholed. What can I do?
