FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Corporate Development?

Corporate Development is the function responsible for driving a company's growth through mergers and acquisitions. That includes researching and evaluating potential acquisition targets, leading due diligence, and integrating newly acquired companies once a deal closes. It's a strategic, high-impact function that sits close to leadership and shapes where a business is headed.

What types of roles do you recruit for?

We recruit across the full Corporate Development & Strategy function, from Analyst and Associate level up through Director and VP, including specialized roles in M&A, Corporate Strategy, Investor Relations, and Strategic Finance.

What backgrounds are common in Corporate Development?

Strong Corporate Development candidates typically come from Investment Banking, Private Equity, Management Consulting, or Transaction Advisory backgrounds, along with internal moves from Strategic Finance or FP&A. We know how to evaluate these backgrounds and match them to the right opportunity.

Do you recruit for Investor Relations positions?

Yes. We place Investor Relations professionals at every level, from Associate to Head of Investor Relations, often alongside broader Corporate Development and Strategy searches for growth-stage and public companies.

Do you recruit nationwide?

While we're based in Sparta, NJ, we actively recruit throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and we're able to support nationwide searches when the right opportunity calls for it.
