Work on an XD project with that team. Then ping the partner to seek advice. If he/she is open to a transfer, speak to your partner and work the transfer out. If you have an existing relationship with XD partner, then you can short circuit straight to the partner conversation. Your best try is internal. No chance external

Hi! Welcome to the bowl

I think it will depend on a lot of factors. A lot of the Big 4s have experience design verticals. Is it possible to horizontally move there?

Feeling a bit lost, working as a Mid-Market account manager for a listed company in Aus and moved across from marketing (3yrs exp) last year.

Company restructures so I've landed in an great paying position but it's a dead end and will probably be made redundant in 12-18 mths, and it's a tick box role (won't learn much tbh).

Do I look to go back to marketing with a pay cut, look at a different company in sales (but don't have much exp), or ride this out and reassess in 6-12mths? Thank you.

There is no scope for doing research. And it is only a handful of product company that has a design team, rest places doesn't even understand what actual Design is. But being in this field, not everyone will get a chance to work with top design driven companies
