Managing Director of New Ventures

Managing Director Of New Ventures

As a Managing Director of New Ventures, you will back exceptional founders at the earliest stage—often before an idea is fully formed—providing first institutional capital and an unmatched degree of strategic leverage and domain expertise through launch and beyond. This role demands generative ideation, exceptional founder judgment, and the ability to sell world-class entrepreneurs on partnering with Redesign Health. You will develop original investment theses in healthcare, identify and attract top 1% founding talent, lead co-ideation and diligence through Investment Committee, and serve as the primary interface between portfolio founders and Redesign's platform.

The core equation:
Exceptional Founders × Differentiated Concepts × Redesign's X-Factors = Power-Law Outcomes.

Identify white space in healthcare where AI-native businesses can create outsized outcomes. Develop original, high-conviction investment theses grounded in deep market understanding, clinician pain points, and structural tailwinds. Generate concepts that are bold, differentiated, and commercially viable. Validate theses through primary conversations with clinicians, operators, payers, and potential customers—not just desktop research. Draft compelling collateral that attracts world-class founders to Redesign's platform.

Find top 1% founders and convince them that Redesign is their best path to building a generational healthcare company. Build a network that surfaces exceptional talent before anyone else sees them. Demonstrate Redesign's strategic leverage compellingly enough that founders choose us. Lead a collaborative diligence process ("co-ideation") to transform thematic areas into venture-scale business concepts. Evaluate concept potential and founder-market fit with the judgment to say no quickly when conviction is lacking—time spent on mediocre opportunities is time away from exceptional ones.

Stress-test your own theses harder than anyone else will. Identify the 2–3 questions that truly matter for each investment and resolve them through primary conversations and expert input. Shepherd founders and concepts to the Investment Committee with clarity, speed, and honest representation of risks.

Develop a robust pipeline of exceptional founders through proactive sourcing across VC networks, healthcare operator communities, and the broader startup ecosystem. Build and maintain deep relationships with tier-one venture capital firms, healthcare incumbents, and strategic investors. Be the person that founders proactively seek out, VCs call for pipeline intelligence, and the industry turns to for a healthcare venture perspective. Your network is a compounding asset—invest in it every week.

Act as the primary interface between portfolio founders and Redesign's platform. Deliver the firm's strategic leverage: domain expertise, go-to-market acceleration, fundraising positioning, and governance insight. Represent Redesign through a single non-controlling board seat where appropriate. Build trusted relationships with founding teams so they proactively seek your input—be the first person they call in a crisis. Know when to lean in and when to step back;

the founder's success is the only thing that matters.

Serve as a healthcare thought leader internally and externally. Teach the organization about emerging healthcare × AI opportunities—what's interesting, why it matters, and how the market is evolving. Proactively mobilize cross-functional teams (Venture Traction, Founder Strategy, legal, finance, technology) early in the deal process. Feed insights from founders, market conversations, and co-ideation back into Redesign's platform capabilities. Represent Redesign externally with the credibility and depth that makes world-class founders want to have a conversation.
