Big 4 Director in Deals ( Diligence and post-close integration/separation experience) considering moving back to industry now that road to partner timelines are severely stretched. What roles are others applying to? Any buzzwords for job searches? I’m running into a lot of sales positions positioned as “corp dev”.

At my firm it’s no secret that time to Partner is going to be much longer now due to heavy backlogs and slower YoY growth. We’re making drastically fewer partners than we have in past years.

LinkedIn is pretty accurate at targeting jobs. Put the level you want, corp bd, corp dev, etc., and you will have the daily updates come in with pretty actionable jobs.

I'm in a similar position...interesting seeing a lot of corp dev and target identification type roles and fewer diligence and post close...which is where we know the magic happens ;)
