About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Market and operational analysis: You will research and evaluate growth opportunities, including assessing new markets, care delivery models, and potential partners. You will build frameworks that help the leadership team compare options and make decisions with confidence.
Due diligence support: You will gather, organize, and synthesize information across financial, operational, regulatory, and clinical dimensions. You will build diligence trackers, document findings, and surface the questions that need answers before a decision can move forward.
Project and process management: You will manage workstreams with multiple stakeholders and moving parts. You will track open items, own timelines, and make sure nothing falls through the cracks. You will know where every workstream stands and flag risks before they become problems.
Stakeholder communication: You will prepare materials for internal and external audiences, including memos, briefings, and structured summaries. You will communicate clearly across functions and adapt your output to what each audience needs.
Cross-functional coordination: You will work across clinical, operations, finance, and legal work streams. You will not own each of those domains, but you will be the connective tissue that keeps them moving together.

Requirements

What you’ll need

Currently enrolled in an MBA program, ideally with prior experience in consulting, investment banking, private equity, corporate development, or healthcare strategy.
At least 2 years of work experience prior to MBA enrollment.
Strong analytical skills. You can build a financial model, size a market, and pressure-test assumptions without hand-holding.
Demonstrated project management ability. You have managed complex workstreams with multiple stakeholders and competing timelines.
Clear written communication. Your memos and summaries are precise, structured, and easy to act on.
Comfort with ambiguity. We are an early-stage company. You will not always have a clear brief. You will need to figure out the right question before you can answer it.
AI fluency. You already use AI tools to work faster and think more clearly. We will ask you to show us how.
The ideal candidate brings a strategic background in healthcare, digital health, or health services, coupled with a proven ability to navigate the complexities of early-stage companies. We are looking for a teammate who is comfortable diving into the details—whether that involves interpreting financial statements, contracts, and regulatory filings, or drawing on prior experience with M&A, strategic partnerships, and multi-site operations.
