In a creative agency and potentially moving from the account side into a new business role. Curious how new business professionals set up their compensation?? Is there a bonus for landing new business? And a typical percentage?

Some sort of commission or performance.bonus should be included. I've had some cases where it ended up being more than the base salary.

I’m sure that’s still the case at some shops, but all new IPG Growth execs are told a firm “no” on commission. They are obviously eligible for the bonus payout in March, assuming the agency/office earns one.

Uncommon in agency land for there to be a heavy commission component unless you are v senior but you should certainly ask for a raise and annual bonus

Depends on the company, location and YOE. What is the new role going to be?

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
