Considering leaving EY for a 300 FTE consulting firm, mainly govt sector, for a strategic talent role (non-client facing).

Current Manager in a long-term product management role. Offer is 30% increase, director title, and fully remote.

Concerned about jumping to a company I had never heard of prior to LinkedIn connection. Thoughts? 30% too low for this type of jump?

Sounds like HR, which is a noticeable shift from product management. Do you want to switch to HR? If so, take it. If not, don't. The role shift may raise questions depending on what your future career plans may be.

Yes that would be my ideal exit. Competition for those jobs has been tough. If it wasn’t for 30% increase and higher title I wouldn’t be interested in the role.

I’d take it. I work at a boutique which is a leader in its space but only has a couple hundred employees worldwide. Pay is much higher than big 4, people much happier - can tell by low turnover. It sounds like the role may round out your story a bit. If your goal is more gen management or functional lead, rather than consulting partner, this helps IMO. And even if your goal is consulting partner, will help with leadership positions within the firm since you understand other dynamics of the business.

Take it. You already have EY brand if you need to bounce back or somewhere else.
