Job Description

Who We Are
The Finance Development Program (FDP) hires recent undergraduates with an interest in finance, strategy, and healthcare. The rotation-based program offers an enriching two-year experience involving several areas of Michigan Medicine, with the goal of developing strong financial abilities, leadership acumen, and a deep knowledge of the business side of healthcare. Rotations and responsibilities are dynamic in nature, based on each individual's interests and competencies, but all participants will encounter a diverse financial, analytical, and consultative rotation experience. In addition to the projects done on rotation, analysts also have the opportunity to continue investing in the program itself, including participating in peer mentorship, recruiting on campuses, and program planning.

Mission Statement
Michigan Medicine improves the health of patients, populations, and communities through excellence in education, patient care, community service, research, and technology development, and through leadership activities in Michigan, nationally, and internationally. Our mission is guided by our Strategic Principles and has three critical components: patient care, education, and research that together enhance our contribution to society.

Responsibilities*
The FDP is aimed at recent college graduates interested in the healthcare industry who are searching for a challenging, yet rewarding, career in a dynamic environment. The goal of the program is to develop the skills and experiences needed by analysts to accelerate and advance their careers at Michigan Medicine.

Potential subject areas include finance, accounting, strategy, business planning, capital investment, cash forecasting, and many other forms of financial and strategic analysis.

FDP projects often require the collaboration of different functional teams, giving program members a unique perspective, and a better understanding of how Michigan Medicine operates.
