Audit to M&A - Help! - GS/Citi Finance Controller Vs internal transfer to M&A
Hi All,
Hope You're all keeping well.
I'm in a bit of a Limbo and throught to throw my situation out here in the hopes of gaining some wisdom. The title pretty much says it all. I am currently an audit senior at B4, and like most people, I'm dead sick of audit after 3 years and looking to move out ASAP.
I decided years back that my next move would be an internal one to M&A with the main aim of ending up in BB IB or elite Boutique and I have since initiated the internal process within my firm.
The dilemma now is that the two BB (one being the big G) have contacted me twice in the past few weeks about joining them in finance as product controller (PC) and they seem really keen. The sound of GS on my CV is really tempting (i consider them the Top) and i guess what I'm trying to find out here is if its advisable to join GS as a PC in the hopes of making it to front office or just keep pushing for M&A within my firm in the hopes of breaking out.
I'm also looking to hear from people who have done either moves. Any one ever done PC roles before?
My background:
I have my Accounting Qual + MSc (finance related) from Top business school + Current CFA Level II Candidate + Some very fancy National and Global academic achievements. I'm also well rated within my firm.
looking to hear from you.
Thanks
