Join the club - every auditor wants to switch but cant
I’ll be brutally honest - you’re not switching service lines right now. Advisory is laying people off and probably isn’t done. Just wait a few months until things improve and try again then.
Find an open role that you would be willing to take and talk with the hiring partner of the new group and then the managing partner of your group. If the new group likes you enough then they’ll advocate for you to be able to switch. The Big 4 doesn’t move fast, so be prepared to wait. Alternatively, go to another Big 4 in an open role you want. IMO a manager isn’t a decision maker, so useless to talk to them. They probably just want to keep you on their team so they don’t have to pick up the slack.
