When to introduction bottle

DD is nearly 5 months and is ebf, she's never had a bottle. I'll be going to work when she's by nine months, by which time I want to have stopped breastfeeding for good, so obviously I need to switch her over from breast to bottles before then.

I'm probably overthinking this but when d'you think would be the best time to start the switch? I was planning on starting around seven months and aim for a gradual transition over a month or so, but obviously weaning will have started by then and I'm wondering if that along with trying to master bottles might be a bit too much at once?
