I currently work at a large alternative credit / private credit manager. my role has a myriad of responsibilities including product development, product specialist/ market specialist (i.e. helping inst’l sales land large tickets when they’re beyond their depth), creating marketing materials and working with sales mgmt in terms of product postioning. I am not making investment decisions but more or less anything on the “business side” of investing falls under my purview. From a product standpoint i cover: CLOs, distressed debt funds, direct lending funds, and long only leveraged loan funds. I have 6 years of experience and have grown organically into this role over the years which has been great, except I feel like I do not have a great feel on what my total comp figure should be since I havent “priced” myself in a while. I am in the process of touching base with recruiters but wanted to see if anyone else on this medium could provide input as well.

what’s your background before this role ?
Sales - was internal wholesaler for a couple yrs than jumped to hybrid. Was making more in that role. But while it’s lucrative I think the pay for that job isn’t sustainable given the industry trajectory. Been in CPM seat for 2.5 yrs now
What's your TC now?
TC is 180k
It's not that bad. Probably you can boost it to 230k
