Is MSc Business Analysis and Strategic Management from University of Manchester worth it to get an entry level position in management consultancy firms? Or which Masters program would be suitable to gain employment?

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Finance and Investment and 2 years work experience as a Tax Analyst in EY. Looking for a career change to management consultancy and trying to decide which Masters degree to pursue. Any help will be much appreciated.
