I know this is a niche one, but what would be expected comp of a Chief Strategy Officer at a PE-backed PortCo with ~$250-300M in gross revenue? Is $600k cash + equity-based incentives realistic?

It depends on the fund but that seems a little high to me - I’ve seen ~$400-500 + incentives

This is the right answer.

When I was doing due diligence projects for PE clients I had access to the comp data and none of the execs made this much at their PortCos of this size...

I'd think realistic if moving as a fresh partner. Manager level? Unlikely.

You think 2% of their revenue is realistic as cash salary for that role? Really?

Ah yes. Sorry. Still feels quite high in terms of cash though

350-400k cash sounds about right

Why does a PE backed PortCo need a strategy lead?

like

Base pay rarely gets that high for mid market pe backed companies. But total comp can range pretty dramatically.

Reasonable cash = 0.1 % of lower rev range max.
Dilutable equity= what ever you negotiate. This is where you probably have most leverage.

Interviewed for Deloitte S&A Tech Strategy SC and got a verbal offer for Consultant instead. I negotiated the offer to 120K salary and 10K signing bonus.

How do I go back to the recruiter to negotiate further? I suggested that I’d probably sign but need time to think. Now I’d like to go back and request 140k salary.
