If O&G interests you go for it. You’ll get invaluable contacts there and show that you are open to relocating which is always great. I think I know which bank you are talking about and many people in their O&G team did few years in Dubai before going back to London to cover the sector. Happy to chat in PMs :)
I am currently in a NatRes group.. and the team in Dubai is generalist (although most of their deals are O&G and they are advising on Aramco potential IPO)
Since the work is regional I would consider the following. Many Middle Eastern countries are going through rapid changes and trying to diversity their income streams for O&G. No doubt a large part of deals will still have that focus, but in the coming years there will be more focus on industries like renewables, real estate, infrastructure, tourism, aviation and healthcare. Since many of those countries have cash to burn, a good portion of that activity will be fuelled by inorganic growth both from the private and public sectors. I think doing a few years there may lead to pretty good deal exposure.
Do it. This will be an awesome resume builder, and if it doesn’t work out, it won’t look bad. You can couch it as a learning experience and always head back to London. While based in NY, I did several deals in the Middle East, and it was an eye opening experience. I also really enjoyed the people and culture.
The only thing I would be "afraid of" is being pigeonholed as MENA M&A/ECM with no industry specialization. Don't know if it will be important assume I want to come back to Ldn or go to NY... Although I reckon, the deal exposure will be much better than what I have now.. (currently in a team of +10 analysts..)
Take the offer, you can spend sometime in Dubai and get a good exposure, in the future you can always transfer internally to LDN or NY easily.
I would definitely consider. Dubai looks sick.
