Looking to Transition from Pre-Sales Analyst to Consulting/Advisory – Need Guidance!

Hi everyone,

I’ve been with one of the biggest IT service provider for the past 2 years after graduating with a BE degree. I currently work as an Analyst in a pre-sales team, focusing on market research, company profiling, P&L analysis, KPI benchmarking, and supporting proposal/offering preparation. I’ve gained exposure to a variety of tasks, including handling RFIs, RFPs, pricing, and commercial strategy.

I also hold two AWS certifications and am looking to pivot towards a consulting and advisory career in the long term. However, I’m unsure about the best approach to make this switch.

Specifically, I need advice on:

•	Which profiles I should target
•	Which companies would be ideal to pursue
•	Which additional skills or certifications would be beneficial
•	Whether I should gain more experience before making the switch

Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and provide guidance!

Target profiles like Business Consultant or Strategy Analyst. Look at firms like Deloitte, PwC, or Accenture. Consider certifications like PMP or an MBA. Gaining more experience could be beneficial.
