Apart from these, I’m not sure what will help you to further your career in consulting.

Project management - business analyst role. It will help you understand the flow. Find a job where you do roadmapping, etc. it makes for an easy transition. I see you’re in a BA role, so if you don’t feel like it is a good fit it likely has to do with the kinds of projects that you are working on.
