You could most likely switch internally at PWC with a CISSP. Anywhere else will be tough to get manager level since you’ve never delivered anything technical
Get the cert, get some experience within PwC on some cyber IA or controls-based cyber engagements, then make the jump either internally or to another firm in a cyber-specific role. You could probably maintain your manager role and increase comp.

You would have to start over as a first year senior or an experienced analyst
The truth is that anything higher than first year senior is a long term diservice to you.
The reason being that a manager has to be able to analyze complex tech problems, weigh conflicting risks, prioritize risks and demonstrate to the clients technical staff that you are worth following.
I woke say - take the three year career reset - learn security really well and you will be well positioned to be successful in the long run / post your consulting career

You can switch over and do Cybersecurity Risk Assessments
