Hi all,

Looking for some advice. I’m currently at a boutique consultancy in operational improvement, I’ve had 3 promotions, have 4.5 years experience, and am on a base salary of £78k (+ benefits and bonus). I’m looking to make a move to big 4 consulting and looking for advice on what grade to apply for and which teams would be a good fit. I saw S&O could be of interest, are there any others?

4.5 years normally = SC in consulting. Which won’t match your current salary, so you need to find a way to punch up to M, and that’s to match.

It would be the “Business Operations” group in consulting here.
