How best to communicate PE experience in a much smaller market

Currently a VP in the #1 MM PE outfit in a very small market (about 4-5 players in all, sub $10Mn av ticket size).

Moving to North America. I know I'm way out of my depth, but if I am to give a shot at making a half decent CV for a possible PE role, how do I best reflect this experience?

To give some context, the investments I helped make and that I am a part of are all leading players in their respective segments (restaurants, IT, and education).

Thanks in advance.
