Does anyone know what the average starting salary is for the middle office of one of the big private equity firms is and how high it can go? By middle office I mean the operations side, so creating and monitoring the funds, checking the accuracy of information, and etc. Not the trading, accounting, or finance portions of the business. Thanks for the help!

Not quite sure what you mean. If you mean the operations group, then it is very well paid (not as well as the deal team but still well paid), somewhat above MBB consulting.
If you mean investor relations then I am not sure. Probably not a lot though.
Yea the operations, so booking the trades and accounting for any interest or fees accrued and fact checking all the fund's data. Would you know a ballpark estimate for the salary?
Always find these questions so pointless. If you are offered a job there you'd know. Otherwise is just finding an extra data point for dick measuring
