LBO Role advice

Hi all,M&A manager in PortCo, IB Background. Total 6y PQE - opportunity to join another P-E PortCo as Director to be responsible for the LBO from within I.e responsible for M&A, BD, Strat, Funding, performance etc. Reporting to both sponsor and CEO. Seems like an excellent opportunity to learn as I would like to become PortCo CEO in next years but it's not in a US hub, and wonder if you ever came across this type of experience and how it can help further growth.Thanks a lot.
