Do you have any prior experience in the industry, like internships or certifications perhaps? That's a good way to start off. Also, you can attend industry events, join professional organizations, and connect with other professionals in the field through online platforms like LinkedIn.

Yes I work in Fin Ops currently

Best bet (and most reliable) is the CPA or CFA to prove your credentials. Referals and networking generally speaking are the next step. Maybe join an association?

I assume you already have your CPA? I would try expanding your skill set by doing some additional certifications online to build out your experience/resume.

It definitely takes time, I've seen it happen mosltly through referrals but also through recruiters. Worth keeping your LinkedIn active and connecting with people
