Leveraged finance/acquisition finance/project finance/structured finance

I wasn't entirely sure where to post this so thought I'd give it a shot here:

Where do leveraged finance, acquisition finance and project finance usually sit within a bank? Are they considered a part of IB (say within Debt capital markets, if that's within IB) or is it a separate division entirely? Does it fall under the umbrella of 'corporate banking'?

Regardless of where it sits, I find this area quite interesting, to be able to analyze and provide financing for big projects/deals and am considering it as a potential career path. I'm currently in a Big Four audit firm due to qualify with my accountancy qualification. I'm wondering what is the best way to move on from that to one of the aforementioned areas?
