Getting out of Corp. Banking (looking for advice/ideas)

-Have worked in corporate banking (energy) for a little over a year and have kind of plateaued.
-Looking to move on but am not sure where to go.
-Not interested in IB (due to hours).
-Interested in ER, but just am not sure how to go about breaking in.
-Regardless, just looking for ideas on different positions to look at or advice on getting into ER at this point. Thanks

Edit: A big motivation is the pay scale at my current bank (feel underpaid). Jumping to another bank in the same position that would pay more could be an additional option. Again, not sure what the best way is to do that though.
