Is it at all possible to go from KPMG strategy to MBB? Feel like MBB really suits my skill set, attitude and ambition… but unsure if KPMG has the strategy creds to make the jump.

KPMG does strategy?

funny

Exactly my point

You should definitely consider spending £100k on an MBA to transition in.

It’s definitely possible and I’ve helped a few friends move, go for it! Feel free to DM if you want to chat

You should give a shot, leverage your experience and stay clear of the bias showed around here. I will move to MBB next month coming from Big4, and i know of similar transitions. Good luck!

Out of interest, what role are you joining as?

Appreciated - cheers!!

KPMG strategy people have jumped to Tier 2s before. And Tier 2 -> MBB is pretty common. Cheaper than an MBA...

I’ve heard of moves from B4 consulting to MBB before- uncommon from what I can tell but doable!

Would also be worth considering some of the strategy-focused T2s imo- similar skill set and good opportunities.

I’m at a Big 4 and got interviews at all MBBs after about 3 years. Definitely a thing
