About LillyDirect
LillyDirect is Eli Lilly's direct-to-consumer pharmacy platform, bringing life-changing medicines - including GLP-1 therapies - directly to patients. We are building enterprise-grade payment infrastructure to support this mission, and we are looking for a payments leader who wants to build enterprise-grade capability from the ground up.
Role Overview
The Sr. Director, Payment Operations will lead the end-to-end payment operations function for LillyDirect, with accountability for success in operational execution, team build-out, and cross-functional coordination across Finance, Customer Care, Platform Experience, Tech@Lilly, Global Business Solutions (GBS), and external partners.
The role will initially support the stand-up and stabilization of payment operations and is intentionally designed to evolve into a people-leader role: over time, the Sr. Director will recruit, build, and lead a dedicated payment operations team and manage key functional partners as volume and complexity scale. Accountabilities span the full payment operations stack - owning the PSP vendor relationship, evaluating new payment methods, optimizing processing tools, managing disputes and chargebacks, partnering with Customer Care on service escalations, and coordinating with GBS on daily reconciliation and accounting workflows to ensure Finance has accurate, timely visibility into payment results.
The Sr. Director will also serve as the primary payments point of contact for our international affiliates as LillyDirect expands globally. This role will report to the Associate Vice President - Business Operations for LUSA Consumer Services and will have direct reports.
