Going from IB to ER?

Currently starting my 2nd year in IB at a regional boutique in LA. Starting to feel tired of the role and interested in pivoting to ER ideally at a larger bank. Has anyone made this move and if so have any advice on lateraling?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

I think Wedbush has a team out here in LA. I may be wrong but I don't know many ER positions that are located in LA.
