is this a corporate development job?
My background is mainly in finance/accounting roles with F500 companies. Hold bachelors degree in finance plus MBA/CPA.
I came across the job below which interests me, but it isn't clear to me whether this role falls within Business Development, Corporate Development, Corporate Strategy, or some hybrid of the above. My background is mainly accounting so I'm not very familiar with these areas, but the role appears to be something I may enjoy/do well in.
Any feedback on the role from those with experience or knowledge of these areas is much appreciated. Any idea on comp for this type of role? Future opportunities or exit ops? Type of level this might fall within? It appears to have some strategic elements but also lists business development responsibilities.

Bump
definitely not corporate development in the M&A sense. I'd say this is a mix of strategic intelligence, biz dev (sales, partnerships) and some strategy (not corporate). I'd guess 85k comp with small shot at exit opps to corp strategy within the same company or industry.
