Description
About The Brydon Group The Brydon Group is a talent-first private equity firm based in Washington, DC. We partner with exceptional mid-career executives to acquire and build B2B, B2G, and healthcare software and tech-enabled services businesses. Brydon combines deep investing experience with a hands-on approach to value creation. We work closely with portfolio company leadership teams to translate investment theses into practical operating plans, build durable growth systems, and prepare businesses for successful exits. Brydon is currently investing out of its $300 million Fund III and has completed more than 40 acquisitions. Role Overview We are seeking a Healthcare Operating Partner to serve as the primary value creation partner and Board Chair to a defined group of Brydon healthcare portfolio companies, typically four to five businesses spanning healthcare SaaS, health technology, healthcare services, and multi-site healthcare platforms. The Operating Partner will serve as Board Chair and as Brydon’s day-to-day operating partner to each assigned company. This person will work closely with CEOs and leadership teams to drive execution against the investment thesis, operating plan, budget, and value creation agenda. The role combines governance, coaching, and hands-on execution support, with a particular focus on profitable growth, go-to-market effectiveness within healthcare verticals, pricing and packaging, product strategy, AI enablement, and add-on M&A. Beyond direct portfolio company work, the Operating Partner will help institutionalize repeatable excellence across the healthcare portfolio by codifying and scaling best practices across our management teams. This role is ideal for a seasoned healthcare executive who has spent meaningful time in both advisory or consulting environments and operating roles — someone who thrives in fast-moving, ambiguous environments and has repeatedly helped leadership teams deliver measurable change and results in healthcare software, health technology, healthcare services, or multi-site healthcare businesses.
