Healthcare Improvement Project Manager

What You Will Do:

• Partner with assigned HCI Leads to build and maintain integrated project plans, timelines, milestones, and budgets across a portfolio of concurrent HCIs
• Translate HCI strategy into structured workplans; track deliverables, dependencies, risks, opportunities and issues, and proactively flag items that need the HCI Lead's attention or execute within guardrails
• Maintain regular touchpoints with external collaborators as the projects are ramping up or tapering down to support collaborators as they navigate Lilly processes
• Coordinate cross-functional and cross-BU logistics for HCI execution, including working across Medical Affairs, E&C, Legal, and external partners (health systems, professional societies, research institutes)
• Support requests for more information, work orders, change of scope requests, payments, budget tracking and reconciliation, and milestone monitoring for assigned HCIs, including monitoring spend against plan and flagging variances; understand relevant internal/external funding regulations well enough to catch compliance issues early
• Compile, organize, and quality-check data and materials for HCI measurement and reporting, working with the HCI Lead to ensure metrics reflect both system-level change and patient-level outcomes
• Prepare and help synthesize materials for external meetings, internal leadership discussions, HCI Steering Committees and other governance forums; capture decisions and action items and drive follow-through
• Help maintain the HCI technology/ecosystem tools (e.g., trackers, dashboards, collaboration platforms) used to manage the portfolio
• Lead landscape analyses of new disease state, new HCI area of focus or new approach
• Identify opportunities to standardize or streamline recurring operational processes across the HCI portfolio and bring forward improvement ideas rather than waiting to be told what to fix
• Additional operational tasks as warranted by portfolio demands and HCI Lead needs

Your Profile:

• Bachelor's degree.
• 5+ years of program/project management experience, ideally supporting complex, multi-stakeholder initiatives.
• Direct experience or meaningful exposure to healthcare, healthcare systems, or health-related programs (e.g., prior work in/with health systems, payers, provider organizations, public health, medical societies, or pharma/biotech).
• Demonstrated ability to manage budgets, timelines, and multiple workstreams simultaneously with high attention to detail and follow-through.
• Exposure to quality improvement, performance improvement, or implementation-improvement science methodology (even if not the primary role) — e.g., familiarity with IHI models, PDSA cycles, or similar frameworks
• Ability to influence with diplomacy
• High level of experience with Claude and/or Co-pilot
• Experience with public-private partnerships
• Experience in managing relationship and work plans with external partners

Employment with ICON is contingent upon having the legal right to work in the country where the role is based.
