What have people heard about business manager / COO roles at hedge funds?

I see a lot of ex MBB in the roles, wondering if the seats are valued, if people think it’s a good landing spot, and if the comp is closer to back office or front office

Very important role (same as the show)

Sounds like middle office. PMs are the ones who make bank at hedge funds; don’t think role would make as much as them, but would still be more $ than consulting I would think

Correct. More middle office. Good for ex-consultants who do not have formal investing experience.
