Depends on the company. I just interviewed for FP&A and they were excited about my core assurance background. Feeling good about it.
I'm in FP&A now and job postings for financial analysts say Big 4 experience preferred.
Why make it more difficult than it needs to be? You left out these options:
3. Staff 2 -> FP&A
4. Senior 1 -> FP&A
Option 1 leaves it up to the employer and you'll really need to gauge how open they are to transferring you. Or hope that what you learned as a senior accountant is enough to help you jump to FP&A at another company.
Option 2 works but going mid size may impact exit ops (although, you'll have B4 on your resume regardless so maybe it doesn't matter). Skillset from TAS definitely aligns better with FP&A than audit though.

I am in industry. My company hires people with data analyst background for FP&A. I don't quite understand what is great about FP&A though.
