Help! Impossible career move? HF Opportunity

Hi! After working for a few years in a company that provides marketing services for Asset Management groups I have now the opportunity to join a small Quant Hedge fund in a 3rd rate European city.
So the choices are:

  • Continue in London as a leader in this marketing services firm.
  • Move to say Valencia, Spain / Nice, France and work in the back office of a startup Quant Hedge Fund being in charge of operational matters and sales support.

Would I be able to move to a financial capital with ease?

Thank you for the inputs!
