Hey All - curious if people on this forum have any insight on what "Finance & Strategy" roles actually entail? This title seems increasingly prevalent at growing technology companies for younger professionals looking to join a finance team internally within a company after exiting from private equity and investment banking into a less demanding role. From my understanding, it seems like it's just FP&A since many of these companies that offer Finance & Strategy don't actually have FP&A teams, but any perspectives here would be much appreciated
