Job description

The Las Olas Network is partnering with a private equity-backed, multi-site specialty healthcare services organization to identify a Corporate Development Associate.

Our client operates a rapidly growing network of physician practices across multiple states. The organization partners with leading providers and supports its affiliated practices with strategic guidance, operational expertise, administrative resources, and capital.

This position will report directly to the Vice President of Business Development & Strategy and work closely with the executive leadership team. The Associate will support the company’s acquisition strategy across the full transaction lifecycle, from initial opportunity screening and financial analysis through diligence, closing, and post-transaction integration.

This is a highly visible opportunity for someone with a foundation in investment banking, transaction advisory, private equity, or corporate development who wants to gain meaningful responsibility within an active, acquisitive healthcare platform.

What You’ll Do

• Support the execution of acquisitions from initial opportunity screening through transaction closing.
• Build financial models and perform valuation, operational, and deal-related analyses.
• Coordinate financial due diligence and assist executive leadership throughout deal structuring and negotiations.
• Work with legal counsel, lenders, and other external advisors as needed throughout the transaction process.
• Develop detailed investment memoranda outlining the strategic and financial rationale for potential acquisitions.
• Prepare acquisition scorecards and present key findings and recommendations to senior leadership.
• Track and evaluate a robust pipeline of acquisition and affiliation opportunities.
• Support the development of executive and Board presentation materials.
• Assist with post-close integration planning and execution.
• Contribute to organic growth and targeted business development initiatives.
• Partner across departments to support operational excellence and other strategic priorities.

Candidates should bring:

• Multiple years of relevant experience in corporate development, investment banking, private equity, transaction advisory services, financial due diligence, or a related field.
• Strong financial modeling, valuation, accounting, and analytical skills.
• Experience supporting or executing M&A transactions, including financial diligence and investment analysis.
• Ability to evaluate a business strategically and translate complex information into concise recommendations.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel and PowerPoint.
• Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills.
• Excellent organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities simultaneously.
• A high level of initiative, intellectual curiosity, and attention to detail.The ability to succeed in an autonomous, entrepreneurial, and fast-moving environment.
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or another business-related discipline.

Experience within healthcare services, physician practice management, multi-site healthcare, or another private equity-backed services organization is attractive but not required.

Why This Opportunity

This role offers direct exposure to an active acquisition strategy and the opportunity to participate meaningfully throughout the transaction lifecycle. The incoming Associate will work closely with experienced corporate development leaders and gain regular visibility with the executive management team.

For the right individual, this is an opportunity to move beyond a narrowly defined analytical position and build experience across sourcing support, financial modeling, diligence, transaction execution, integration, and broader corporate strategy within a growing private equity-backed organization.

Location & Compensation

This position is based at the company’s corporate headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. Candidates must currently reside in Atlanta.

Compensation will be competitive and commensurate with experience.

The organization offers a comprehensive benefits package, including:

• Medical, dental, and vision coverage
