Analyst - Healthcare M&A

B C Ziegler & Co • New York, NY

13h • $100,000 - $115,000 • Hybrid

About The Position

Ziegler is seeking a highly motivated Investment Banking Analyst to join its Health Systems and Strategic Partnerships Advisory team in New York. Unlike larger investment banks where responsibilities are often highly segmented, analysts at Ziegler are fully integrated into deal teams and play an active role across all phases of transaction execution and business development. Analysts work directly with Managing Directors, Vice Presidents, and Associates and have the unique opportunity to engage with health system executives, boards, investors, and strategic partners early in their careers. The role offers meaningful exposure to live transactions and provides strong mentorship and training within a collaborative team environment. This position is ideal for candidates seeking hands-on experience, significant responsibility, and direct client interaction within a leading healthcare-focused investment banking platform. Candidates should be located in, or willing to relocate to, the New York area. Our team works across several Ziegler offices, so candidates should be comfortable collaborating with a distributed team.
