Compliance Mobility at HF/AM/IA

I was wondering if anyone could provide insight for Compliance and back office jobs in regards to mobility working at a hedge fund, Asset Management or investment advisor firm. I have an opportunity to move to one of those 3 and wanted to make sure it wouldn't put me in a dead end career wise. The job is very attractive due to the more challenges I'd have to deal with and the much better pay. I understand there can be risks if the company went under but I'd also like to think one would be able to move up in the company or to a IB, Trade House, Firm, Regulatory as well. Any advice?
