I'm looking at leaving my consulting job at a top 10 CPA firm. I'm talking to a finance/accounting staffing company about a BD role, and a local boutique firm about a consulting director role. I've never worked in staffing or as a full-time BD, but it seems like a cool opportunity and I've had some success selling in my current role. On the other hand, the consulting job would be very familiar to me and with still decent growth potential.

Any pros or cons I haven't considered yet?

Do you know if they ended up liking that transition?

Is this a BD role at TSG? If so, I know a good amount about it…..would take the consulting role

I left Audit at a midsize firm to join KPMG erp implementation consulting about 6 months ago.

I've been on the fence about whether I should stay and hope to be staffed on better projects in the future or leave soon...
