Just started a new role as a financial analyst, and my manager has already started talking about future leadership opportunities. What does that actually look like in this industry? How long did it take you to climb from analyst to manager or beyond?

Leadership opportunities often mean moving from analyst to roles like senior analyst, team lead, or manager. The timeline can vary widely; some move up in 3-5 years, while others may take longer, depending on the company, performance, and opportunities available. Personally, it took me about 4 years to move from analyst to a managerial position, but everyone's journey is unique. Good luck on your path!
