Internal lateral from coverage to M&A (focused on coverage)
Currently ASO2 in a coverage group
Recently did really well on sellside and the M&A team director I worked with casually mentioned they are looking for a VP1 and said I could be a fit. For context this is an industry-adjacent M&A team so they do a lot of work with my current coverage group.
She would vouch for me with the M&A MDs (who all like me). I've enjoyed the M&A deals I've worked on as well, and the title jump / early promo would be cool as well.
A few concerns: I joined my current coverage group a little less than a year ago, so I would be leaving pretty quickly (even if joining the adjacent M&A team). And I see some downside risk here if I express interest and things don't end up working out.
Any thoughts would be helpful -- if anyone senior would be willing to connect off the site / give some mentorship and advice in this situation I would really really appreciate it!
Do you want to be an execution person? The more valuable skillset at VP+ is coverage.
