I work in Investor Relations as an analyst, great experience, tons of visibility with C-Suite, decent I think pay (98k + 5-12% bonus), and enjoy the work. Been in this role for 13 months, prior experience in FP&A (2 yrs), and EY Public Accounting (1 yr), I’m a CPA. Turned down an internal manager promotion to return to FP&A (concerns around the director, and genuinely like my current work). Wondering where else I could apply my skills

Know people who’ve cycled into IR in public companies and then jumped back into other finance roles - FP&A and Corp Dev being the likeliest transitions.

Or what moves I should be thinking about making, upward mobility in this role seems like a fairly long game overall

Can you elaborate? We’re a 2 person department at a just below Fortune 500, so I touch just about everything

Investor relations is usually where people land mid to late career, right? It seems like a great landing spot but I’m not sure if you can build a rounded skill set or not if you are at a larger company where you might be siloed. Could be wrong though

Yeah I’d say that is atypical to be in IR this early and it’s usually more a landing spot. I feel as though I’m getting pretty well-rounded skillset, except no opportunity to develop people. Very lean department. Makes wonder if I’m short circuiting my development, would hate to leave a job I like to learn team leadership

If you’re happy, continue looking around other Investor Relations roles at other companies. The only close parallel would be Corp FP&A
