Do I list transaction experience when applying for a “corporate strategy” role? What does corporate strategy even consist of? From the job description it looks like a mix of FP&A and supporting the Corp dev team.

Yes, but write it management consulting style not banking style...plenty of examples out there. Look at ex-McKinsey resumes and emulate.

List it and be able to speak to the strategic rational behind each deal and the reasoning behind whether or not it closed.
If it is more of a support/FP&A role, highlight your strong modeling/PowerPoint skills and your ability to manage multiple projects(deals) at once.

Could be a dynamic role where you assist with M&A activity while playing a significant role in the build out of the FP&A/integration team as the company expands

Strategy from my understanding is just a lot of research and getting the people at the top information in an easy to understand and digest way so they can make the best decisions for the company. Stress multitasking ability and attention to detail.

Hello, I recently was reached out to by an in-house recruiter at a similar but slightly different company than the one I currently work for. The recruiter provided a base range and an OTE range. The lower end of that range is what I am currently making. The higher end of that range is almost 200k more than my current comp. The role is almost identical. I wasn’t looking to move, but that higher end range would set my family up very nicely for our goals. But I am happy at my current company. Help?
