Never too late in my opinion. If your firm will pay for the exam and books, I think it's a no-brainer to go for it. As for job titles, I'm not sure why you'd need a CFA to be a trader, but at some places it's indispensable in order to become an analyst. It sounds to me, though, that your first priority should probably be to figure out what you want to do other than "not a portfolio accountant."

Interesting career path. I am an actuary (pensions, entry-level, pretty early in the exam process) with a serious interest in investing. Mind if I PM you with some career questions?
