A few years back, I desired to do the same. At my previous organization, they did not have budget nor business justification to promote me into management. Based on that condition, I applied for management roles and got several offers. I went from senior consultant to manger overnight. My biggest advice is that if your current org isn't going to promote you, promote yourself by leaving for what you want.
It’s really just a bigger picture thing. Management role focuses on balancing operational cost and risk - vs eg getting the Pen Test done within 90 days.
Managing vs solutioning can be a big leap but you seem prepared. My title on here refuses to change but that’s essentially my role - it’s a lot less technical abilities a lot more presentations/chasing people around to patch stuff/talking to vendors/creating proposals on new implementations.
