For F500 type firms, what is potential comp for a VP/Head of CorpDev or M&A? I couldn’t find much discussion on this but it’s an important data point for those who choose to go corporate. From some digging it appears that $400k base + 1x bonus + 1x restricted stock comp is in the right ballpark. Obviously imagine wide band around that depending on firm size.

Hi secondavenue, just trying to help:
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
I don't think you are too far off, if you look at CGOs (who are essentially board level M&A Reps) Their annual comp tends to come out to 800K-1.5M which is right in the ball park of your guess.
Industry matters. So does company size.
1x cash comp and 1x RSU comp is well below VP Corp Dev pay for F100
ignoring tech - most industries probably pay 1.3-1.5x cash bonus + 1.5x RSU (RSU is annual assuming flat comp across vesting) for VP level
manager in corp dev in major cities should be $150k base 30% cash bonus and maybe stock + good 401k, etc.
^^this is a pre Covid data point FYI
Is this noticeably higher than non-corp dev corporate finance roles like fp&a? Do you need to stick to corp dev to max comp in corporate?
Throwing out a few datapoints for my midcap tech company:
FWIW we do a lot more than M&A. I run our quarterly reporting process, we're involved in IR, FP&A, and do a lot of strategy work.
What industry? Are you a director or vp?
Thanks. That’s very healthy and beats all but MD’s who are consistently killing it.
Sold a lot of business 300m to 2B.
VP level in the 1-2B range are normally 500- 600 total cash plus 300 estimated equity value.
most of the guys under 1B play 20% less with those under 400m not normally having any one higher then a sr. / manager making 250 all in.
Two data points during 22.
750M EV PE backed service business offered me VP of Corp Dev role 250k base 200k cash bonus 150k equity options are prior sale price. Essentially their attempt was to make the job a wash comp was to staying in IB.
$3B EV public business services business offered director of corp dev to my buddy who turned it down 200k base 150k bonus 75k RSU
what kind of business was the first one? is this common?
Where does IR at a corp shake out in this? Below corp dev as well or more because of the equity upside?
Corporate IR won’t get equity until Director or VP level at most companies.
IR at. PE / PC fund pays way better.
