TPG PE - Business Unit Finance opportunity question

Hello! I was recently forwarded information on an opportunity at TPG, and it's described as follows: "An Analyst in the Two-Year Program will focus primarily on performing analytics, financial reporting and accounting associated with Business Unit (BU) Finance, which supports the TPG private equity fund platforms."

Does anyone know what the "business unit" finance entails? I have a finance/accounting offer (not IB), but ultimately, I do want to work in PE. Any thoughts on this?
