Returning to IB after an SA (London)

Finishing up SA - enjoy the work but considering grad roles outside of finance. Wondering how an SA (with a return offer) at a top BB will place me if I ever want to break back in, either directly or through an intermediary step (I.e. moving to my grad companies Corp Dev team then back to IB).
