  • Analyse healthcare sector trends, regulatory developments, and competitor activity across the UK market

  • Support budgeting, strategic planning, and long-term expansion projects

Candidate Requirements

  • Experience within Transaction Services, Corporate Finance, M&A, Financial Due Diligence, Private Equity, Investment Banking, or Strategic Finance

  • Strong financial modelling and analytical capability

  • Previous exposure to acquisitions, leveraged finance, or debt management activities

  • Healthcare sector experience is advantageous but not essential

  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills

  • Ability to operate within a fast-moving, entrepreneurial investment environment

  • Strong commercial awareness and attention to detail

  • Advanced Excel and financial analysis skills

Ideal Backgrounds

  • Investment Banking M&A teams

  • Private Equity portfolio finance teams

  • Corporate Development functions
