Can I pull out of an assessment centre?

I have just accepted an offer for a SA position but I have an AC coming up for a buy side IR role.

Having made up my mind 90% previously for the SA offer I haven’t prepped much at all and was surprised to get the AC call back, considering the AC isn’t run through a recruiter I’m sure I won’t get through.

I was wondering will there be any long lasting consequences of pulling out of an AC, after confirming a slot. Mainly with other firms, recruiting agencies etc? Thanks
