Which Middle Office Groups Are "Easier" to Break Into From A Non-Target?

Pretty much the title says it. Which Middle Office groups (i.e. Risk Management, Corporate Treasury, Financial Control, Corporate Strategy, Compliance, etc.) are more doable in terms of breaking in as a non-target person? At this point, I think FO banking, Trading, ER, Consulting are out of reach and I have no interest in Ops, so I'm wondering if a middle office position, for example, might be possible?

thanks
