Do KT roles grow into the expert track? The most senior KT roles I ever see are like 6 YOE. I’m pretty aware of the KT teams positioning in MBB, but don’t really understand the growth trajectory. Anyone able to help me out - I’ve exhausted my google searching abilities. Thanks!

Yes they do! After being in the role of LKA for 18-24 months, you can switch to a ‘C’ on the expert consulting track (granted on passing the interviews ofcourse).

KT tops out at the SKE (Senior knowledge expert) level

So preferably client facing, but just curious. I understand their positioning in firms and don’t necessarily care about transferring into a traditional/core role but am interested in entering the expert track. But from my understanding, you can’t really enter that until you have like 10 YOE. Strategy wise I’d be willing to do knowledge for a few years if there’s the opportunity to grow into the expert track
