Position Overview:

The Senior Director, Senior Director, Employer Business Integration & Performance will report to the AVP, Lilly Employer Business Operations and serve as the strategic integration leader across the full Lilly Employer organization. This role translates enterprise and portfolio strategy into cross-functional execution—aligning Field, Strategy & Marketing, Business Operations, Platforms, and Business Development against shared business outcomes and the employer benefits decision cycle. The role drives strategic alignment through governance and operating mechanisms, leads transformational projects that accelerate employer access, and represents Lilly Employer on key enterprise and cross-functional initiatives.

Candidates should be strategically minded, analytically fluent, and energized by leading cross-functional transformation in a high-growth environment. They should bring strong business acumen—the ability to synthesize performance insights across sales, marketing, platforms, and operations into a clear read on business health and strategic direction. They should thrive in whitespace, bringing structure to ambiguity, translating strategy to execution, and driving alignment without positional authority. This is a high-potential accelerator role: the person who does this well will touch every dimension of running a business and will be positioned for future general management leadership.

Key Deliverables:

• Special & Transformation Projects: Lead high-priority, cross-functional projects as they emerge—scoping the problem, executing strategic modeling, structuring the work, coordinating across functions, and driving to resolution. Projects will vary but will consistently tie to removing barriers to employer access, accelerating opt-in growth, or strengthening the commercial system.

• Monthly Business Performance Narrative: Synthesize insights across the Employer team, Business Operations (including the Employer Intelligence System), BI&A, and GOSO into an analytically grounded monthly read on Employer business health—covering opt-in trajectory, penetration trends, pipeline health, flywheel stage performance, and channel-level performance. Integrate performance insights from analytics partners into a unified scorecard and narrative into a single source of truth on whether the Employer commercial system is working. Not a dashboard—a strategic narrative with judgment that recommends action.

• Employer Strategic Operating Cadence: Design and drive the strategic operating cadence for the full Employer organization—weekly leadership syncs, monthly business reviews, quarterly planning—with defined agendas, decision rights, and outputs. Ensure the cadence drives strategic alignment and resource decisions, not just status updates. Includes leadership reporting packages for LUSA LT, CEO visits, and LVA updates.

• Integrated Business Plan & Budget: Lead annual strategic planning, budget development, and headcount allocation across all functions with quarterly milestones, investment phasing, and trade-off analysis.

Key Responsibilities:
