salam...to answer your first concern first..in my point of view (which is solely my understanding of the environment here in Pakistan and Middle East) your chances of progression are much better if you choose some audit firm over this job offer..as u said money is not a problem for you then u shud go for a career that is more rewarding over long term...if u wanna go to Middle East or abroad then the safest choice is External audit...I am not saying that other finance professionals dont move to ME..I am just saying that the number of audit personnel going abroad is far above than the corporate finance or the internal audit persons...one simple reason..audit is global due to ISAs (International Standards on Auditing)...However if u want to stay in Pakistan and are definite sure that u will seek your career in treasury only then goto this company..one last thing.it is never a safe move to start your career with Internal Audit.so rule that out...hope I was of some help....
