I have received an offer from PA Consulting , which I think will speed up my development by around 2 years, compared to staying where I am. (More diverse role, exposure, not just focused on one platform/product for which I currently am). In addition, the offer is also a large increase in package. I have only been at my current company for 6 months, however I would like to take the offer, how do I approach this?

Could I ask which grade and rough area (consulting/apps)? I’ve recently done the switch from Cap to PA, I don’t think anyone will judge you for making a move that you feel is very good for you in the current market.

Hi, I have personal messaged you to find out more about your situation and if you are enjoying! I hope you don’t mind

Just be honest and tell them I have been offered a role which is offering 'x' in terms of development and packages. If you've made your mind up just tell them honestly.

It depends:

1. Do you actually want to leave your current firm and join the new one?
If yes, thank your current firm, hand in your notice and join the new one

2. Do you want to stay at your current firm but see change to what work you are doing?
If yes, approach your manager and position the offer you have as a conversation starter to review how to make your current role work for you. If comp is a bigger driver for leaving, then you can also look to negotiate, but only if you want to stay

I’m currently expecting an offer from PA. Out of interest, what grade and what base was offered?
