Senior Analyst

Senior Analyst – Healthcare Strategy & Commercial Due Diligence

London | Hybrid | Full-time

Who we are

Mansfield Advisors is an award-winning specialist strategy consultancy focused on healthcare. We advise private equity investors and corporate clients across healthcare services, pharma and life sciences, and veterinary markets. Our work spans commercial due diligence, growth strategy, market entry, go-to-market strategy, value creation and digital transformation.

We work in small, senior teams and aim to give our consultants early responsibility, direct exposure to clients and Partners, and the opportunity to build deep healthcare expertise while working across a broad range of subsectors and transaction sizes.

The role

As a Senior Analyst, you will be a core member of project teams, typically working in teams of up to five consultants. You will own defined analyses and outputs, conduct primary and secondary research, and turn evidence into clear insights and recommendations. As you develop, you will take responsibility for discrete modules or smaller workstreams, with coaching from an Associate or Engagement Manager.

What you'll do

·       Conduct quantitative analysis, including market sizing, forecasting, scenario analysis, benchmarking and business-plan modelling.

·       Carry out qualitative research, including company and market research, review of industry and policy sources, competitor analysis and synthesis of expert interviews.

·       Prepare for and increasingly lead expert interviews, identifying the questions that matter and drawing out commercially relevant insights.

·       Analyse company information and financial statements, understand key revenue and cost drivers, and test the assumptions behind management plans.

·       Build clear, client-ready slides that connect evidence to conclusions and fit the overall project storyline.

·       Take ownership of the accuracy and quality of your work, including triangulating sources, checking calculations and challenging inconsistencies.

·       Contribute to team problem-solving and present findings internally and, where appropriate, directly to clients.

·       Support proposals, pitches and Mansfield knowledge-building, including development of sector perspectives and thought leadership.

What you'll bring

You will typically have 1–2 years of relevant consulting experience. Previous healthcare commercial due diligence experience is essential for this role.

·       Experience in a strategy consulting environment, ideally with exposure to private equity clients and transaction-related work.

·       A strong academic record and degree from a leading university; a scientific or medical background is not required.

·       Strong quantitative and analytical skills, with confidence using Excel and interpreting financial and market data.

·       Clear written and verbal communication, with the ability to structure a problem and explain conclusions succinctly.

·       Commercial curiosity: you want to understand how healthcare businesses make money, compete and grow.

·       Comfort working at pace and to a high standard, including the tighter timelines that come with commercial due diligence.

·       Fluent English; additional European languages are welcome but not required.

Why Mansfield

·       Specialist healthcare focus: build genuine sector expertise rather than rotating across unrelated industries.

·       Small teams and early responsibility, with regular exposure to senior clients and Mansfield Partners.

·       A varied deal environment, including both larger and mid-market transactions as well as corporate strategy work.

·       A clear career path through Associate and Engagement Manager to Partner, with responsibility increasing as quickly as your performance allows.

·       A strong work-life balance relative to consulting, alongside a hybrid working model (normally at least two days per week in the office).

·       Competitive base salary and bonus, workplace pension, private health insurance and an individual health and wellbeing allowance.
