Job Description
Healthcare Improvement Hub – Enterprise Implementation Science Specialist
Eli Lilly and Company
Role Description The translation of scientific evidence into real-world clinical practice remains one of the most persistent challenges in healthcare. Many effective treatments take too long to be integrated into routine care, and system-level barriers — rather than a lack of evidence — are often the primary obstacle. The Global Healthcare Improvement (HCI) Hub serves as Lilly's enterprise center of excellence for Healthcare Improvement, supporting the design, execution, evaluation, and scale-up of healthcare improvement initiatives across business units and geographies. Within this context, the Enterprise Implementation Science Specialist is a strategic leader who combines Business Unit-facing HCI leadership with deep expertise in implementation science. This role has two interconnected responsibilities: - Serve as the HCI Lead for an assigned Business Unit, leading the strategy, execution, management, and scale-up of the HCI portfolio in close partnership with BU Medical Affairs and other key stakeholders. - Advance implementation science as an enterprise capability, helping Lilly apply fit-for-purpose implementation science methods to strengthen the design, evaluation, adoption, sustainability, and scale of healthcare improvement initiatives and selected evidence-generation efforts where implementation science adds value. Qualifications - PhD, MS, or other advanced degree in implementation science, health services research, public health, epidemiology, health policy, or a closely related field. - 8+ years of progressive experience in implementation science, health services research, or a closely related field. Requirements - Demonstrated experience applying implementation science methodologies to healthcare delivery, evidence translation, healthcare improvement, or applied research in real-world settings. - Strong track record of leading complex cross-functional initiatives involving internal and external stakeholders. - Demonstrated ability to translate scientific or methodological expertise into practical strategy, implementation, and measurable outcomes. - Experience working within or in direct partnership with healthcare systems, provider organizations, public health organizations, academic institutions, or the life sciences industry. - Formal training or significant applied experience in implementation science. - Experience working across Medical Affairs, HEOR, Clinical Development, healthcare systems, or public health settings. - Familiarity with healthcare improvement and quality improvement approaches, including IHI frameworks and related methodologies that complement implementation science. - Experience supporting evaluation design, implementation outcomes, and dissemination of findings in peer-reviewed or professional forums. - Demonstrated ability to think and act globally, with a customer focus and a solutions orientation across diverse geographies and healthcare systems. - Experience in compliance-driven environments, including pharmaceutical industry regulations and healthcare institution governance. - Location is flexible in desired geography. - Domestic and international travel and flexible working hours may be necessary (approximately 20%). Benefits - Comprehensive benefit program including eligibility to participate in a company-sponsored 401(k); pension; vacation benefits; medical, dental, vision and prescription drug benefits; flexible benefits; life insurance and death benefits; certain time off and leave of absence benefits; and well-being benefits. - Full-time equivalent employees are eligible for a company bonus (depending, in part, on company and individual performance). - Actual compensation will depend on a candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location. The anticipated wage for this position is $165,000 - $316,800.
