How difficult is it to transfer from a London office to New York at a BB from SA to FT?

I'm doing SA at an office in London. I am an American and at an American school, but this was by far the best SA offer I got.

I want to try and transfer to New York for FT. How difficult would this be? I feel like at the very least, I should keep my mouth shut about it until I have been given a return offer though right (this group has a high return rate)?
