Can you switch from Fund management to Asset management or Investment in Real Estate ?

URGENT !!

Hello,

I am currently interviewing for a position as a fund management analyst at a real estate investment and asset management company. I must admit that initially, I applied for a position in asset management or investment analysis, but given the current real estate market situation, the company only had a fund management position to offer.

If I were to take this fund management position, I would like to know if I could switch in the same company or another one to asset management or investment analyst quickly and easily after 6 months/1 year or a maximum of 2 years working in fund management.

What do you think? Is it possible or not worth it ?

To give more detail about this particular position of fund management analyst :

2/3 to 3/4 of the work consist of = 

- Calculating and monitoring the forecasted performance of managed funds
- Monitoring and controlling (valuations, cash flow management, banking ratios) + reporting

the last 1/4 to 1/3 consist of :
- Managing new acquisitions
- Managing real estate strategy and real estate issues in coordination with the Asset Manager

Please, I need a quick response because my interviews have just ended, and I need to give an answer to the company.

Thank you for your time !
