Are you doing BD or transaction execution?

BD?

Business development.

"For I am a sinner in the hands of an angry God. Bloody Mary full of vodka, blessed are you among cocktails. Pray for me now and at the hour of my death, which I hope is soon. Amen."
 

im honestly not really sure which category i would fit into. It's a very small group, and it's only my second week. My position is going to involve a lot of random work, so far i've edited COMs (confidential offering memorandums ) and sought out buyer sources for our sell-side advisory clients.

That sounds transaction oriented so I would just go with IB Associate. If your primary role was soliciting new clients/deals for the firm (creating marketing materials, attending industry conferences, working on pitches, etc.) then I would keep the original title, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
