Key Responsibilities

  • •Own the day-to-day relationship between Redesign Health and Cedars-Sinai. Serve as the accountable driver of delivery against the partnership’s commitments. Prepare materials for and participate in Joint Operating Committee, Steering Committee, and Investment Committee meetings. Build deep, trust-based relationships with clinical and administrative stakeholders across the health system - department heads, researchers, operational leaders, and the Digital Innovation team so that when opportunities surface, you are the first person they call.
  • •Work inside Cedars-Sinai’s clinical ecosystem to identify the problems worth building companies around. Engage directly with clinicians, researchers, and operational leaders to understand where digital solutions can create outsized value. Translate those insights into original investment theses grounded in stakeholder willingness to pay, clinical workflow integration, and market structure. The platform’s initial focus areas include personalized medicine, specialty care access, hospital workflow optimization, clinical decision support, and care coordination, but you will shape these thematic priorities as the partnership evolves.
  • •Identify and attract exceptional founders to lead the companies this platform creates. The value proposition you are selling is unlike anything else in the market: a validated clinical thesis, first institutional capital, day-one access to Cedars-Sinai’s provider network and data platform, a committed first customer, and Redesign’s full venture-building infrastructure. Your job is to present this proposition compellingly so that exceptional talent chooses this path over well-funded alternatives, and also to evaluate founder-market fit with the judgment to say no quickly when conviction is lacking.
  • •Stress-test your own theses harder than anyone else will. Identify the two or three questions that truly matter for each concept and resolve them through primary conversations with clinicians, payers, and potential customers. Shepherd founders and concepts to Redesign’s Investment Committee with clarity, speed, and honest representation of risks. Concepts should arrive at IC with a clear path to Cedars-Sinai as a design partner and first customer.
  • •Lead and develop the New Ventures team assigned to the Cedars-Sinai partnership. Provide direct management for Associates and Principals. Mentor junior talent while contributing to Redesign’s broader organizational strategy and venture creation methodology.

Key Requirements

  • •8–10+ years of experience in healthcare, with meaningful exposure to company creation, investing, or strategic innovation - whether from venture capital, corporate venture, health system innovation, strategy consulting, operations, or a combination
  • •Experience working with or inside large healthcare organizations (academic medical centers, integrated delivery networks, payers, or health tech companies serving them) and an intuition for how institutions adopt new technology
  • •Healthcare domain expertise with the ability to develop original investment theses across care delivery, health tech, and digital health
  • •Fluency in business model analysis, primary and secondary research, investment thesis development, and financial modeling
  • •Bachelor’s degree required; MBA preferred
