Value-Add at PE Firm

Applying to a job under the head of partnerships at a growth equity firm. From my understanding I would be helping with seeding initatives/partnership development/analyzing the success of partnerships. so seems like a marketing role. i had never heard of this side of PE. does anyone have any insight on this? trying to prep for interviews but not sure what exactly to study... for this operational role do you think they would ask me technicals? what do they usually ask for operational? thanks
