Fund Accounting vs FP&A

Hi, I am currently looking to exit Big 4 Audit and have the following two opportunities:

Finance Manager at Top VC firm (in-charge for reviewing all accounting work prepared by out-sourced accountants. basically operations and reviewing work here along with work with auditor requests).

Senior FP&A Analyst at mid-size private SaaS company (true FP&A role, no accounting involved).

Which of the above roles would you go with when considering the following: pay, hours, exit opportunities?

Thank you for any advice in advance!
