2nd Year S&T Associate looking to lateral into IB

Currently a 2nd year associate in NY in S&T and looking into lateral into IB as an an1, have realized that S&T is not for me long term. 25 y/o and want to avoid going to business school to get into IB if possible. Realize its tough in the current market, is it possible for me to make the move?
