This role reports to the VP of M&A and works closely with Real Estate, Finance, Marketing, Operations, and external partners to ensure Solis expands into the right markets with the strongest strategic rationale and highest likelihood of success.

• Direct influence on the success and growth of the organization.

​​​​​​​Here is what you will need:

• Bachelor’s degree required.
• 3–5 years of experience in management consulting, corporate development, real estate strategy, healthcare strategy, investment banking, or similar analytical/strategic role.
• Healthcare or multi-site services experience preferred.
• Strong analytical and strategic capabilities; advanced proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint.
• Demonstrated ability to synthesize complex data into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Experience assessing multi-site location strategy or retail-like market expansion a strong plus.
• Highly organized and capable of independently advancing multiple early-stage opportunities.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with experience preparing materials for senior executives.
• Familiarity with real estate analytics tools is a plus. 

A Day in the Life of a Manager of Market & De Novo Strategy:

• Provide services and support for the following areas:
• Market Strategy & Opportunity Development
  • Lead market-level analyses to identify priority growth regions using demographic, competitive, payor, and health-system data.

  • Maintain and evolve Solis’ market prioritization, demand forecasting, and competitive intelligence frameworks.
  • Create a forward-looking pipeline of de novo opportunities aligned with enterprise growth goals.
• Trade Area & Site Identification
  • Conduct deep trade-area analyses incorporating demand modeling, competitive mapping, referral landscape review, and adjacency opportunities.
  • Identify and recommend high-potential trade areas and micro-markets for Solis expansion.
  • Evaluate individual site options (visibility, access, parking, competition, co-tenancy benefits) and provide clear, data-backed recommendations to the Real Estate team for lease pursuit.
  • Refine Solis’ site evaluation scoring tools and market-entry playbooks.
• Transaction-Related Documentation 
  • Own the creation and progression of de novo transaction documents including:
    • Investment cases and internal approval packages

    • Physician services agreements (when applicable)
    • JV-specific documents for health-system–linked de novos
  • Coordinate with Finance and Legal to ensure transaction documents are complete and ready for leadership review.
  • Maintain ownership through internal approval and transaction readiness, then transition the project to Real Estate and Implementation for execution.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration
  • Serve as the strategic business development point of contact with Real Estate and Implementation during handoff, ensuring all assumptions and market insights are understood.
  • Provide ongoing support and refined assumptions as needed during site negotiation or implementation, without managing downstream workstreams.
• Performance Lookbacks & Continuous Learning 
  • Conduct post-opening strategic reviews (volumes vs underwriting, payor mix, competitive response) to strengthen future market targeting and site selection accuracy.
  • Maintain an enterprise knowledge base on the characteristics of successful Solis de novos across different market types.
