The selected candidate for the Corporate Development Manager role will lead strategic growth initiatives, evaluate and execute M&A transactions, and build partnerships that accelerate the company's market position. You will translate corporate strategy into actionable deals and alliances. You will:

  • Lead end-to-end M&A processes (target identification, financial modelling, due diligence, valuation analysis, deal structuring, and integration planning)
  • Build sophisticated financial models to evaluate acquisition targets, partnership opportunities, and strategic investments across the healthcare technology landscape
  • Conduct market analysis and competitive intelligence to identify white space opportunities and assess the strategic fit of potential transactions
  • Partner with executive leadership to develop and refine corporate strategy, evaluating build vs. buy decisions, market entry strategies, and portfolio optimization
  • Manage relationships with external advisors (investment banks, legal counsel, consultants) and coordinate cross-functional deal teams
  • Lead due diligence workstreams covering financial, commercial, operational, and technical assessments of target companies
     
  • 3-5+ years in consulting (MBB, Big 4, or boutique firms) with exposure to healthcare, life sciences, or technology sectors
  • Experience in corporate development, M&A advisory, investment banking, or private equity with deal execution experience
  • Strong financial modelling and valuation skills, i.e., you build DCF models, perform comparable company analysis, and assess deal economics
  • The ability to manage complex, ambiguous projects with multiple stakeholders and tight deadlines
  • Exceptional analytical skills combined with strategic thinking, i.e., you can zoom in on details and zoom out to see the bigger picture
  • Executive presence and communication skills, i.e., you can present deal recommendations to C-suite leaders and boards
     
  • Step 1: Submit your application.
  • Step 2: You'll receive an invite to join the NextStep platform.
  • Step 3: Complete your profile on NextStep.
