Need help figuring out what to look for/what I’d qualify for. I would like to make the switch to consulting - the money and business travel are big motivators. I have a Masters degree (non-MBA), 4.5 YOE in operations finance (labor planning as a Senior Finance Analyst) and 6 months as a Process Engineer. Would like to break $150k and would love to get up to $200k in the next couple of years if possible. What kind of role would I possibly qualify for? The consulting language is very new to me.

More likely to hit that staying at Amazon, tbh

You would likely be targeting Consultant / Senior Consultant / Senior Associate level roles (different firms have different titles). This is typically one level below Manager. Now, comp varies pretty dramatically across firm, function/practice, and region. Also, consider whether you want to go into a more technology role working with a specific system / platform or more of a functional management consulting role.

What kinds of platforms? I have very, very limited SAP experience as a user and even less in Oracle so those are probably out.
