Job Details
- Sr. Business Analyst (SBA) will drive the execution of our Catalyst Due Diligence process for finalist companies seeking entry into the Catalyst program. Due Diligence includes: Market Analysis, Competitive Analysis, Business Plan Review, IT and Data Analysis, and alignment to Stanford Medicine ISP (Integrated Strategic Plan). SBA will identify project weaknesses and work directly with faculty to mitigate to acceptable levels of risk before recommending Due Diligence to Stanford Medicine Leaders/Deans/CEOs/CSO for review and approval. SBA will provide business plan coaching for all “silver medalist candidates” not accepted into the Catalyst program to provide additional business plan and marketing analysis on why their projects were too risky for the Catalyst program. Post pilot project, the SBAs will work with project teams to update their business plans with evidence gathered, create narrative and roadshow materials, and prepare the project team for their exit path out of the Catalyst program. This critical stage recasts research and translational work into industry objectives for maximum impact. SBA is an expert in market trends and analysis and will provide consultation to the entrepreneur and teams regarding general business-related items. Catalyst projects are early-stage development and much of their competition, or potential competition, in the market will still be in stealth mode. A SBA will have the connections and knowledge to separate signal from noise and predict the marketplace in the near future. SBAs will do business analysis and make allocation recommendations for projects ranging from $100k to $1M in size.SBAs will be creating reports for, and working with, Sr. Faculty, Stanford Medicine Deans/CEOs/CFOs, Partners at Venture Capital firms, and SHC/SM board members. Position will lead knowledge transfer with the SHC Marketing and Business Development groups to share best practices, tools, and projects. Externally, SBA will represent Stanford Medicine’s interests by developing networks to share best practices and de-risk investments with other AMCs or Healthcare venture groups. SBA will report to the Director of Operations and work closely with the Catalyst Business mentor.
