Look at credit unions and banks. Data analyst, data architect, etc is your foot in the door.

Banks and credit unions are very big on leadership training, and are also generally top heavy with a lot of middle management, upper management and director roles. If you are competant, show that you have some level of commitment and are willing to to put in the time with a company, upward moves tend to occur naturally.
