Location: Bogotá, Colombia      Reports to: Country CFO

We’re looking for an experienced, highly motivated FP&A Manager to challenge the status quo and lead the transformation of our financial planning and analysis agenda. This is a role for someone who doesn’t just report the numbers — you partner with the business to shape them, translating financial insight into decisions that drive growth and profitability.

If you have a strong track record of supporting business and cross-functional partners, and you want your work to make a real difference, Lilly needs your talent to help us deliver on our promise to patients. Consider becoming part of the Lilly story.

As FP&A Manager, you will own the affiliate’s planning, forecasting, and analysis cycles end to end, and act as a trusted financial advisor to the leadership team. You’ll be the connective tissue between the local business, the ICH Hub, and global finance — ensuring our plans are ambitious, credible, and aligned.

This is a people-leadership role with direct reports. You will lead and develop a small finance team, set priorities across the planning calendar, and build the capability and bench strength of the function.

• Planning & Forecasting: Lead the affiliate’s planning cycles (budget, forecast, and long-range plan), building robust projections grounded in historical performance, market dynamics, and commercial strategy.
• Financial Analysis & Insight: Analyze financial and commercial data to surface trends, variances, risks, and opportunities — and turn them into clear, actionable recommendations.
• Reporting & Communication: Prepare and present financial reporting to senior stakeholders, including the ICH Hub and the Colombia Management Committee, to enable confident decision-making.
• Business Partnering & Strategic Planning: Collaborate across functions to develop strategic plans, pressure-test assumptions, and ensure resource allocation aligns with financial and business objectives.
• Performance Management: Define and monitor the KPIs that matter, providing proactive insight on financial and operational performance.
• Process Improvement & Transformation: Identify and implement improvements — including AI, digital, and automation tools — that raise the efficiency, accuracy, and impact of the FP&A function.
• Team Leadership: Lead, coach, and develop direct reports; inspire, motivate, and influence peers and the affiliate/Hub leadership team, elevating the role of finance as a strategic partner.

• Strong financial modeling, scenario analysis, and analytical skills.
• High attention to detail and accuracy, even under tight planning deadlines.
• Proficiency with financial systems and productivity tools (e.g., Excel, SAP, Microsoft Power Platform).
• Comfort leveraging AI and automation tools to streamline reporting and improve FP&A processes.

• Experience leading or developing others, with the ability to build and motivate a high-performing team.
• Strategic thinking with strong problem-solving and business acumen.
• High learning agility and the ability to work independently and prioritize effectively.
• A collaborative style with the credibility to influence cross-functional teams and senior leaders.
• Excellent communication and storytelling skills — able to make complex financials clear and compelling.

• Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, Accounting, Engineering, or a related field — or equivalent experience.
• 7+ years of experience in financial planning and analysis, with a proven track record of delivering results.
• Fluent in English and Spanish

• People-leadership experience, including direct management of one or more team members.
• Experience in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, or life sciences industry.

• Position based in Bogotá, Colombia.
• Split-week hybrid model: remote Monday and Friday; in-office Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
