PE -> MBA -> Corp Strat?

Hi all.

I am currently a first yr at a UMM/MF PE firm, and I dont want to continue in PE. I am planning on moving to corp strat/dev after getting an mba, but I was wondering what roles would be available for someone like me? I would have 2 yrs ib at a BB bank, then 2 years of PE, and an mba from H/S/W. Would I be a Manager or Director or VP(very highly doubt unless at an early stage startup)? Id like to know specifically for SF tech and LA media. Also, should I try lateraling without an mba, because recruitment may be difficult post mba if we havent recovered by then.

Thanks.
