Eli Lilly and Company

For nearly 150 years, we’ve made significant and game-changing progress on our mission to make life better for people around the world. We’ve remained headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana, since our founding on May 10, 1876, but our employees now work in countries around the world.

And thanks to the dedication of our diverse global team, we’ve been able to answer the call for new medicines to help solve some of the world’s most significant health challenges

When you’re on a mission to do what’s never been done before, you seek people willing to challenge the status quo of medicine. Those willing to relentlessly pursue what’s next, all in the name of health above all. #WeAreLilly
