Haven't seen a Comp thread for Corp Fin/Dev/Strat. Let's get one started:

Title/YOE: FP&A Manager, almost 9 YOE (6.5 big 4, 2.5 in role)
Firm Type/Industry/Size: Energy/utilities/mining portco
Comp: $150k base, 20% bonus, ~$100k equity a year (one time grant 6 months after starting, vests over 5 years, only pays upon sale or distributions over hurdle)
City Description: suburb of LCOL (Phoenix/Dallas/Atlanta)
5% raise, bonus paid at 25% instead of 20%
For another datapoint, recent role I discussed with recruiter but didn't interview for:
Director of Corp Dev and FP&A, energy/utilities/mining portco
$175 base, 30% bonus, no equity (feedback was VP's and above get equity)
I really wanted the title and increased base, but would have required a 3 hour drive or 2 hour bus commute per day, not ideal with two young kids (and didn't want to leave 60% of unvested equity)
Title/YOE: Corp Dev Associate, ~5 YOE

Title/YOE: Analyst, Corporate development & Investor relations (1 YOE)

Not ideal comp (especially since I was corpdev before this), but I took it after getting laid off at my last job and so far really like the work and team.
