Is it reasonable to jump to a manager position in the industry from a consultant position in MBB or T2? (EMEA)

I dislike my job more and more everyday, but I see very little way out at my level and with similar pay.

Manager exit from Associate/Consultant at MBB is very common

Same.

I think your observation is accurate. Tbh one of the big benefits of having ‘manager’ in you title is that it is a role that Industry thinks it understands and is more willing to give you more senior offers.

Even trying to explain that Snr associate is equivalent of a manager in some firms is a struggle.

I have an offer to do some consulting for a company based out of the UK (I am in the US). The job would not go through a consulting company but would be directly with the company. I have not done any consulting before so I am not sure how it works, what I would need to set up (they mentioned that I would start a LLC and bill them directly, no idea how to do that), how to determine the tax implications of this, or what hourly rate I would expect. Can anyone offer advice?
