From Market Risk to Investment Banking?

Is it possible to transition from Market Risk to IB(Corp. Finance)?

I’m working in risk management and have an offer from BB Europe based in Market Risk Stress Testing but was wondering how is risk management considered in terms of exit opportunities.

In the long term I want to move to IBD/PE/CF
