ESG Research Analyst > Investment Analyst in an ESG fund

Currently a buy side ESG research analyst at an Asset Manager. Interested in moving into a more technical equity research role, specifically in an ESG/Impact fund. 

Wondering what would be required to achieve this route/whether anyone has done this? Doesn't seem to be a common path. 

I have the CFA.
