I spent two years in investment banking before pivoting into corporate development. I’m now full-time on the corp dev team at WTW, and I previously interned in corp dev at Otto Group. Because I made this transition recently, I know what it takes: how to reframe banking experience into a compelling “why corp dev” story, what hiring managers look for on a CV, and how the interview process actually works. I’m here to help bankers and other finance professionals make the same move I did. Having recently gone through the process myself, I can walk you through exactly what worked: reworking your CV to highlight the deal experience corporates care about, building a clear story for why you’re leaving banking and why corp dev fits, and preparing for each interview stage, from behavioral and fit questions to technical and case-style rounds. I’ll tailor everything to your background and the types of companies you’re targeting.
