I am currently in BA role(started a year ago) and previously i had 5+ technical experience. I wanted to start my journey as project manager. Can anyone guide me or highlight some points?

My suggestion would be to stick to BA role and learn one domain in depth. Then go for product owner (and product manager in future) rather than project manager.

Currently a staff in audit - 6 months in. Glad to be learning a lot, and have had a generally positive experience at the firm other than a few interactions, some tough busy season nights. Really been intrigued by TAS/M&A, however, and had a few convos with a senior in TAS i know at the firm. It’s closer to what I studied, but don’t know how to make the jump as it seems an internal transfer could take 6+months/senior rank and a lot of convincing. Is it better to jump firms/has anyone done this?
