Need advice: moving into Healthcare M&A team

I have worked for just over 2 years in a start-up « no-name » m&a boutique. Then I recently moved into a business development & strategy position with a fortune 500 healthcare company (but based in a European country that is not the group’s headquarters). My new job is not as exiting as my previous one, and quite frankly I am starting to get bored (everything is very, very slow).

I would like to move to an M&A healthcare team in London (currently I live in another country). How hard do you think this would be? (I’d like to do this in Q1 2010) What should I realistically be aiming at? (small boutique, mid-market IB, BB, etc.) Would staying one year only in my current job be perceived negatively by recruiters?

Thanks for any advice.
