I did this. When I was looking, felt like market rate was 100-130k cash and then equity valued at 80-100k vesting over 4 years (so TC between 120k - 155k)

I like the role a lot better then consulting, but it is very dependent on the specific company and person you report to. Make sure you understand how they view the role before taking the position

TC: 200k. Manager to CoS for a CXO for a very well known startup at the time.

The work can be more interesting than consulting, but depends on the seniority level of the executive and size of the company. It is very difficult, and at most a 2-3 year role. I gained more business knowledge in a year than all years consulting. In my case it was significantly more difficult than consulting, having to coordinate 10 Global VPs who were 15 years older than me is not easy. Humbled very quickly.

Main responsibility:
-Oversee, monitor, strategize, adapt then make actions every aspect of the business and ensure it’s in sync with all departments and to objectives.

ExCom/Board Meeting (prep)
Business Executive Meeting (host)
Multiple SteerCo (plan)
Weekly Finance, GMs, Business Operations, Marketing, Data (attendee)

Side responsibilities:
-Adhoc finance/BizOps/analysis/research
-weekly business/finance/people reports
