Time for a Career Change?

Hi everyone,

I'm Sarah and was recommended this website by a friend who said that he found it was a great source of info with like minded people.

I work in London with a large Law firm and am thinking of a change to either a new organisation or department - the old glass ceiling rule kicking in.

I've been working with some consulants and think that the change from inhouse to consultant is a step I want to take and have gained an MBA to achieve this.

I havent found many consultants who are looking for specialists - most have said that they arent looking at the moment because of the economy. Have you found this in your experiences? I'd be interested to hear.

Hope you are all well and looking forward to going forward with you.

what area of law were you working in?

what level of experience?

what kind of consulting firms/roles have you been applying for?

Hi Marsday

Am currently working in mergers and acquisitions with 10 years of experience. I've worked as part of a team and am now leading a small one reporting into one of the partners.

To date have been looking at the big 4 but am wondering if a smaller boutique firm might be a better option.

Thanks

any of the Big 4, more or less any of the tier 2 advisory firms (I'm thinking of Grant Thorton, Baker Tilly, Mazars and the like), corporate finance boutiques, restructuring firms, etc etc. The possibilities are very broad.
