I currently have 6 years experience in a Bank covering Corporate Banking, Corporate Relations and Chief of Staff roles. What KEY IB skills do I need for a move there as a VP I? Valuation skills and Excel mastery?! It would be a Coverage role. Thanks!

Not at the VP1 level, VPs don’t often use excel. It’s ability to meet with clients and ability to lead and manage an M&A process which entails a lot. Also your more uphill battle will be probably convincing people you can do the latter skill set when most in IB wont know what corporate relations and chief of staff roles are
