Hi there,
I am a commerce graduate working in a back office role. I started as an intern in Fund Accounting and have been promoted to a senior in two years. I have been applying for other roles in the industry and recently got an offer from a investment consulting firm (say Aksia or Albourne) for an Operational Due Diligence Analyst.
I cant post links but there was an operational due diligence Q&A post here and that would be the role exactly but I'd basically be starting over in a new place. I would be doing back office due diligence (not to be confused with commercial due diligence). The pay is about 12K higher. At my current role, I could qualify for an Assistant Manager position by the year end.
My plan is do an MBA in Strategic Management and Organizational Studies/Business Consulting and hopefully break in to Big 4 consulting. If so should I stick in current role or pursue the opportunity at the ODD consulting firm?
Thanks for your help!
Both positions you mentioned won't lead to your post-MBA goal. Also, both positions seem to be pretty much the same in terms of pay and career advancement. I think your priority is MBA. Whether to take the offer is just a random thing. If you want to go through farewell letter writing and re-enroll health insurance, fine, you can take the job : )
