About the role

This Director role is the senior business product owner for consumer personalization on the Adobe Experience Platform (AEP), responsible for scaling Lilly's consumer experience (CX) capabilities and accelerating the delivery of personalized, data-driven experiences across Lilly-owned and operated platforms.

Responsibilities

• Own consumer personalization on AEP.
• Drive the consumer use-case library, capability roadmap, and product responsibilities in activation workflow —design, build, launch, and measurement — to deliver target use-case volume and incremental impact in line with COE goals.
• Scale consumer experience velocity. Establish repeatable patterns, fast-track paths for standard use cases, and a healthy, well-prioritized backlog managed in partnership with brand and capability teams.
• Lead the consumer personalization squad. Direct the Consumer Personalization Product Owner (Business), Consumer Personalization Product Owner (Technical), and the LBI delivery team — set goals, develop talent, manage capacity and throughput, and ensure clear accountability and handoffs across the team.
• Partner with TA/brand HCP/Consumer Leads. Translate brand strategy into AEP audiences, journeys, and personalization moments by aligning on customer segments (KPS), problems to solve (KPO), and high-value actions (HVA); coach brand teams on what "personalization-ready" inputs look like.
• Steward consumer 1st party data production. Partner with Data Engineering, MDM, Identity, and Consent teams to ensure 1st party signals are captured, governed, and surfaced into AEP with privacy-by-design controls; serve as the business owner for the consumer 1st party data domain.
• Embed privacy and compliance by design. Ensure compliance with HIPAA, CCPA, CPRA, and other applicable privacy obligations across all consumer personalization activities; align with NPP/ACE consent frameworks where applicable; partner with Privacy, and Legal on emerging use cases.
• Represent the consumer personalization function on COE governance bodies. Active member of the Product Board, and Technical Review Board; bring the consumer voice and 1st party data perspective into capability prioritization and platform decisions.
• Drive measurement discipline. Lead ROI, attribution, experimentation design, and CX KPI frameworks to translate personalization activity into measurable business impact; ensure analytic stories become actionable insights for brand and leadership audiences.
• Identify and prioritize capability investments. Champion investments that unlock new consumer use cases and CX maturity — real-time decisioning, AI/agentic decisioning, advanced audience modeling, server-side identity, content supply chain integration.
• Manage the development balance sheet. Recommend resource optimization across capital and operational expenditure to support the consumer personalization roadmap; build business cases that frame trade-offs in business terms.
• Maintain an external best-practice mindset. Bring in best-in-class personalization, identity, and consent practices from outside pharma; ensure Lilly's approach evolves ahead of regulatory and platform change.
• Partner with Lilly IT and platform owners. Lead change across DevOps and platform engineering to enable governance at scale through both software-driven (policy-as-code) and human-driven controls.
• Other key initiatives and special projects as needed.
