The Global Facilities Delivery (GFD) Organization, part of Corporate Engineering, delivers new and renovated capital assets around the world. Our mission is accomplished through a highly leveraged organization of design, construction, and qualification contractors. Many of the assets delivered focus on medical innovation and delivering innovative solutions to patients. Some of the assets delivered will expand the supply of existing medicines or strengthen the supply chain.

Key Objectives/Deliverables

• Project Management: Lead and manage teams to deliver large programs of at least $1BN USD or more in capital assets that are highly business-critical in nature. These teams will consist of both Lilly and Non-Lilly professionals, working to safely achieve project objectives from front-end planning (conceptual design) in a Brownfield or Greenfield site through operational qualification (cradle to grave). Project objectives are defined as delivering asset capability or capacity with safety, cost, schedule, and quality assurance.
• Interface/Communication: Ability to lead from a regional distance from corporate headquarters while developing and maintaining effective communication with GFD leadership, the project team, governance teams, business partners, and other stakeholders. Facilitate issue resolution, anticipate scope changes, and implement project work safely with quality, speed, and value.
• Compliance: Lead with a disciplined, structured approach to project management based on compliance with Company Policies and Procedures.
• Safety/Environment: Develop and maintain safety and environmental execution plans for projects. Ensure compliance with safety and environmental policies, procedures, and work rules for project personnel, contractors, and subcontractors from conceptual design through operational verification.
  
  
  

Minimum Requirements

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering or a technical related field (i.e. project management, construction management).
• Minimum of 15+ years previous experience in capital project delivery in industrial or manufacturing facilities (preferably leading projects/multiple projects >$100MM in size).
• Previous experience managing greenfield projects.
  
  
  

Additional Preferences

• Pharmaceutical manufacturing experience.
• Capital Project Management Experience in pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities such as: Bulk API, sterile products, secondary packaging, devices, and to a lesser extent, lab projects.
• Experience in the following areas: GMP manufacturing, LEAN, automation, construction, construction quality, project controls, the engineering disciplines, safety, and scheduling.
• The capacity to achieve results and influence through people.
• Demonstrated ability to work from long distances with little supervision (ability to make decisions without management approval, while at the same time keeping management informed and engaged on critical issues).
• Effective communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Ability to influence personnel and organizations without having direct administrative responsibility for them.
• Competency in a foreign language(s).
• Professional Engineer (PE) or equivalent technical certification.
• Project Management Professional (PMP) certification.
• Experience in working and/or living outside the U.S.
• Demonstrated willingness to embrace the concept of continuous improvement and be an agent for change.
• Willingness to relocate and/or travel to locations outside of home state/country.
  
  
  

Additional Information

• International travel is likely required in this role and may include weekends and multi-week stays (15% to 30% travel, domestic and international).
• The position will require full relocation to the project location at a later date, as it does require onsite presence (this is NOT a remote role).
