At Lilly, we unite caring with discovery to make life better for people around the world. We are a global healthcare leader headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. Our employees around the world work to discover and bring life-changing medicines to those who need them, improve the understanding and management of disease, and give back to our communities through philanthropy and volunteerism.

Acquisitions have always been a part of Lilly's external innovation strategy and it is expected that acquisitions will continue to be a critical part of our business development strategy moving forward. M&A integration is complex and involves the convergence of diverse organizational cultures, processes, technologies, and people. As a result, the Acquisitions Transition Team (ATT) was formed to centralize processes and ways of working to achieve excellence and consistency across acquisitions and the integration process. The ATT is integral to the success of transitioning acquired companies into Lilly to ensure Lilly delivers on the intended value of the acquisition in partnership with the business.

The Senior Director, Acquisitions Integration Lead role, will be responsible for participating in technical and corporate due diligence and deal team processes to formulate the integration strategy for potential new acquisitions, manage stakeholder alignment prior to deal sign through deal close, lead cross-functional integration planning and execution, and drive continuous improvement efforts within the ATT. Given the potential episodic nature of acquisition deal flow, there may exist other opportunities within business development, alliance management, or the due diligence space to provide surge capacity if needed.

Responsibilities :

• Participate in technical and corporate due diligence and the transaction deal team processes to inform integration strategy and planning
• Develop acquisition integration strategies including operating model and people strategy, define integration priorities based on risks from diligence and business objectives, and gain alignment with Sr. Leadership
• Create acquisition transition roadmap to drive alignment and optimize transparency among leaders and target company employees during integration planning & execution
