Corp Dev Comp

Hi All - just got an offer from a F50 CPG for a role in corp dev/biz dev to basically help manage and grow port co's and new biz opportunities 

Will have total freedom to explore opportunities and put internal cash to work. I have no MBA and am 3yrs out of college. 

Comp is 115 base + 15 signing + 25 bonus. All in 155.

I figure this is pretty fair for coming in light on xp. Am I getting ripped off here or did my last reread of The Art of the Deal pay off? 


Thanks-

Hey man, congrats on the offer and sounds like a great comp for 3 years out. Would you mind sharing your recruiting process in regard to timeline and how networking plays into it? I'm starting in IB next year but would like to transition towards corp dev, but don't really know what the process is like, seems a bit informal compared to how structure PE recruiting is.

 

Hey man, it was a total one off. I was in a totally unrelated industry (commodities) and I approached my hiring firm with an informal JV opportunity in the space. Opportunity eventually collapsed due to a lack of interest on my companies end, but my new firm wanted to bring me a long to continue to build the business

Sorry if its opaque, but its pretty easy to dox myself if anyone related to the project put 2 and 2 together.
