A great number of people use their work email for PE recruiting. It shouldn't be an issue, so long as your firm doesn't have a recruiting ban.

My concern is that you have indirectly refer to the deals you are working on on your resume, especially the ones that are not closed. If compliance/your MDs get a wind of this, there might be some issues.

What exactly are you disclosing on the one line that describes the transaction? Perhaps you're being too specific.

In any case, literally hundreds of analysts use work email to communicate with headhunters. Resumes pass through this digital real estate without issue.

If it really makes you feel so paranoid, just keep using your personal account. Another upside of using your personal email address is that you don't have to reconnect with headhunters after you leave your current job.
