Senior Associate / Director, Healthcare Investments
Wittington Ventures
Wittington Ventures (WV) is a Toronto-based venture capital firm backing bold entrepreneurs across North America who are using technology to redefine the future of commerce, consumer, climate, and healthcare. We are thesis-driven – we evaluate industry sub-sectors and invest in start-ups that share our conviction on the trends that we identify. WV has a unique set of investors that give us unparalleled access to some of Canada’s largest companies to help our portfolio of startups succeed; our affiliates include companies such as Loblaw, Shoppers Drug Mart, Choice Properties, Holt-Renfrew, PC Financial, Joe Fresh, and philanthropic Foundations focused on key healthcare and environmental areas. We pride ourselves on fostering a collaborative and inclusive work environment where creativity and initiative are encouraged.
We are currently seeking an experienced healthcare investment professional to join our small and closely knit investment team. The ideal candidate will bring deep expertise in US healthcare, including digital health and tech-enabled services, and combine investing acumen with sector-specific knowledge to help identify, evaluate, invest in, and build the next generation of leading companies in the sector.
This role offers a unique opportunity to shape our healthcare investment strategy and work with a team that has invested in some of the leading healthcare technology startups. The Senior Associate / Director will be an intellectually curious professional who can deepen our understanding of the digital health landscape, particularly in areas such as software, informatics, and tech-enabled services. You will spend your time on sector research, deal sourcing, company diligence, investment execution, and fund and portfolio company support. The work will periodically include interacting with our investor affiliates to help understand industry trends and share mutual perspectives on industry developments. The firm’s presence and relationships will allow you to see consistently interesting deal flow, and you will gain experience in crafting investment theses, identifying obscure patterns and understanding how to predict and unlock meaningful returns.
You will bring to the team a background in science, engineering or business, a strong financial acumen, an analytical mindset, entrepreneurial spirit and collaborative approach to problem solving. This is a chance to join an ambitious team and unique investment platform that is backing founders and category-defining technology companies that will fuel the next century of innovation.
