Senior Director – Technical Services/Manufacturing Science (TS/MS)
for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat job title as heading. Do NOT put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings. Remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, application instructions. Include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it — never emit heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless posting actually states them. Prefer few substantive sections over many thin ones.
We need to parse the posting.
Key content:
- Overview: description of Lilly, mission, etc. Could be "About the role" or "Overview". The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have sections: About the role (or Overview), Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications (maybe combine with Requirements?), Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
We need to decide which sections have real content.
From posting:
- Overview: "At Lilly, the work is demanding because patients are waiting. We unite caring with discovery to help make life better for people around the world, knowing that every decision, every detail, and every day matters. Headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, our over 50,000 employees around the globe take on complex challenges to discover and deliver life-changing medicines, strengthen how health is understood and managed, and support the communities we serve. This is hard, urgent, selfless work—but it’s work worth doing. If you’re driven by purpose and ready to bring your best to work that truly matters for patients, we invite you to join us. Overview At Lilly, we unite caring with discovery to make life better for people around the world. We are a global healthcare leader headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. Our 35,000 employees around the world work to discover and bring life-changing medicines to those who need them, improve the understanding and management of disease, and give back to our communities through philanthropy and volunteerism. We give our best effort to our work, and we put people first. We’re looking for people who are determined to make life better for people around the world. Lilly is currently constructing an advanced manufacturing facility for production of API molecules located in Lebanon, IN. This facility is Lilly’s largest investment in manufacturing capacity and is intended to provide APIs for current and future products, including new modalities. This is a unique opportunity to be a part of the leadership team for the startup of a greenfield manufacturing site, and the successful candidate will help to build the organization, the facility and the culture to enable a successful startup into GMP manufacturing operations."
That's a lot of prose. Could be "About the role" or "Overview". We'll use "About the role".
- Role Description: "The Senior Director of Technical Services/Manufacturing Science (TS/MS) for Small Molecule or Peptides provides strategic and operational leadership for the Lebanon LP1 site. This role ensures safe, timely, and compliant startup, process validation, and inspection readiness for new and existing products. The position drives technical excellence, fosters innovation, and develops future technical leaders to support global manufacturing objectives."
That could be part of About the role or separate. We'll incorporate into About the role.
- Responsibilities: bullet list:
Key participant in developing the strategic direction for the site on both the medium and the long term.
Lead all aspects of TS/MS for small molecule or peptide operations, including new product introduction and optimization.
Develop and execute strategic and operational plans for TSMS aligned with site and corporate goals.
Ensure validated state of all processes and compliance with cGMP and regulatory requirements.
Build strong technical partnerships with Synthetic Molecule Design and Development (SMDD), Global TSMS, and other global functions.
Oversee preparation and timely completion of technical documentation and reports.
Provide leadership in technical problem-solving, risk management, and continuous improvement initiatives.
Coach and mentor team members, ensuring resource allocation and capability development.
Represent TS/MS in cross-functional governance and strategic decision-making forums.
That's a list; we can put under Responsibilities
with - each.
- Basic Requirements: Education Level: PhD degree in Chemistry or related field; Experience: 15+ years in pharmaceutical development and manufacturing with leadership in TS/MS or similar department. Large scale manufacturing experience preferred.
That's requirements. Could be under
Requirements
as list.
- Additional Skills/Preferences: Proven ability to lead large technical organizations and manage complex projects. Expertise in process validation, technology transfer, and regulatory compliance. Strong strategic thinking and business acumen. Excellent communication and stakeholder engagement skills. Ability to manage changing priorities within tight timelines.
That could be Skills section.
- Compensation: "Actual compensation will depend on a candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location. The anticipated wage for this position is $168,000 - $246,400 Full-time equivalent employees also will be eligible for a company bonus (depending, in part, on company and individual performance)."
Thus we have Pay section with specific range and bonus mention. So we should include Pay.
- Benefits: "In addition, Lilly offers a comprehensive benefit program to eligible employees, including eligibility to participate in a company-sponsored 401(k); pension; vacation benefits; eligibility for medical, dental, vision and prescription drug benefits; flexible benefits (e.g., healthcare and/or dependent day care flexible spending accounts); life insurance and death benefits; certain time off and leave of absence benefits; and well-being benefits (e.g., employee assistance program, fitness benefits, and employee clubs and activities)."
Thus Benefits section with list.
- Schedule: Not explicitly mentioned. There's no mention of schedule (e.g., full-time, part-time, shift). The posting says "Full-time equivalent employees also will be eligible for a company bonus". It implies full-time but not explicit schedule. We should not create Schedule section unless posting actually states it. It does not explicitly state schedule; we can infer full-time but not explicit. Better to omit Schedule.
- Qualifications: Could be same as Requirements; but we have Requirements and maybe Qualifications separate? The posting has "Basic Requirements" and "Additional Skills/Preferences". Could treat Requirements as education/experience, Skills as additional skills. Qualifications maybe not needed separately. We'll follow instruction: Use headings as appropriate; we can have Requirements and Skills.
We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc.
We must remove boilerplate: EEO statement, accommodation request, ERG list, etc. Also remove lines like "Lilly is dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities..." etc. Also remove "Actual compensation will depend on a candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location." That's part of Pay but we can keep the range; but the sentence about dependence is generic but still part of Pay description; we can keep it as prose.
We must not include duplicated lines.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
Thus produce something like:

We need to ensure we didn't include any filler like "commensurate with experience". Not present.
Check for any duplicated lines: we removed EEO etc.
Check for any mention of schedule: none.
Thus output.
Make sure to not include any extra text outside HTML.
Let's craft the About the role prose: combine overview and role description but keep concise but preserve all substantive information. Must not invent or summarize away detail. We need to preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. That means we should keep the details, not omit them. However we can combine sentences but must not lose info. Let's try to include all key points from overview and role description.
