PE IR to FP&A at a Port Co? Possible?

I know IR in PE isn't covered much on WSO but wondering if anyone on this forum has ever made a transition like this or have seen any colleagues do so in the past? 

I'm not a CPA but come from a public markets background prior as an Analyst. 

Any insight is greatly appreciated!
