It depends on what you want to do in the future. I think leaving early is better for technical growth and overall career trajectory, especially if you're moving into an accounting/ops role. The longer you stay, the more it pigeon holes you. It's easier to move out of audit at more junior roles.
It depends on your career goals. Reflecting and clarifying what you want will help inform your decision. Continuing to climb the ladder where you are may prevent a pivot later on. What is making you consider leaving?

As far as stunting your growth, it depends what you’re looking to jump into and what your goals are. Are you just going to another PA firm? If so, not necessarily. It’ll be more of the same, just new clients. If you’re going into industry, it’s really a matter of whether or not you’re hireable for the roll you want with your current qualifications. Even then, it’s not like you stop growing, you just grow in a different direction.
I definitely don't want to move to another PA firm. I want to move into an FP&A, financial analyst, or industry type role.

If you’re looking to go into a new field, make the switch now. If you wait till manager and decide to try something new, you’d be coming in at a junior level essentially. The extra years for manager wouldn’t have been worth it, but if you do decide to go back into something similar, manager will have been worth it. Up to you and your future goals
