Big 4 IT Audit > ? [Anyone with similar experiences to move AWAY from IT Audit?]

I have been in the IT Audit group for 3 years and looking for a change. I still want to be in the IT field, but want to stay away from audit as much as possible. Anyone with experience on what type of roles they have moved into and advice on how to leverage your experiences from IT Audit in a career change?

I sit within audit but am not an auditor - I say I'm "audit adjacent". You could consider something like audit analytics and/or data science to mix the items in your background.
