Big 4 to Strategy Analyst role at Airport

I have received a job offer to move from a Management Consulting role at the Big 4 to a Strategy Analyst role at a major airport in my home country.

The role will allow me to specialise in strategy, whereas my current role is many operationally focused. 

The pay would stay around the same. Would this move be recommended?
