Anyone successfully made a jump from BA to product owner? How did you do it? Any tips on trying to make that transition as part of a job hunt, as opposed to moving up internally within the company?

I guess me. I think PO is a good skills match for BAs. This is because a big part of being a BA is understanding stakeholder needs and how to manage the change. How I landed the role was I joined an Agile project and they needed someone to lead a product team and my skills were a good fit. Tips: I would suggest looking for a project in an organisation that is committed to agile eg financial services
