Should I take a product control role at a power company?

Might be getting an offer from a large electric power company as a product control analyst in their risk department.

I’m not sure what the core responsibilities of the role are, it seems to be a lot of reconciliation but there seems to be some interesting aspects as well. It gets to talk to traders, mark deals, update P&L and understand the business.

Is this a bad role to start out in? My eventual goal is to move to the quant risk/structuring side of the business. Should I take it or hold out and go for risk roles?
