Why This Role Matters

The Chief Specialist, Integrated Planning creates a single, integrated view of priorities, demand, resources, dependencies and delivery across Technology Enablement. The role connects strategy with execution, enabling leadership to focus investment and capacity on the initiatives that matter most to Ma’aden.

The role strengthens decision quality by turning complex portfolio information into clear priorities, scenarios and trade-offs. It brings together technology roadmaps, business demand, delivery milestones, resource requirements and performance insights so that initiatives are realistically sequenced, execution-ready and aligned with business needs.

Through disciplined planning, governance and performance insight, the role improves portfolio visibility, anticipates constraints and enables earlier intervention, stronger accountability and more predictable execution across Technology Enablement.

What You Will Deliver

Integrated Planning & Strategy Execution

Shape and embed an integrated planning framework that connects Technology Enablement priorities, demand, roadmaps, resources, dependencies and expected outcomes.
Translate strategic priorities into actionable annual, quarterly and rolling plans with clear sequencing, milestones, ownership and decision points.
Strengthen execution readiness by ensuring plans are realistic, aligned to business needs and supported by appropriate governance.

Portfolio Prioritization & Alignment

Integrate technology demand, portfolio initiatives and transformation priorities into a consolidated enterprise planning view.
Drive prioritization, capacity and dependency analysis that enables informed trade-offs on sequencing, resources and delivery commitments.
Align roadmaps across business, technology, Finance, Procurement, Enterprise Architecture, Cybersecurity, Data and operational stakeholders.

Performance & Planning Governance

Establish consistent planning and portfolio governance that provides leadership with timely visibility of progress, risks, dependencies, constraints and required decisions.
Create executive-level dashboards, scorecards and decision insights that strengthen portfolio performance management and corrective action.
Define common planning standards, performance measures and escalation criteria that improve consistency and accountability across Technology Enablement.

Strategic Insight & Decision Support

Translate complex portfolio and planning information into clear scenarios, recommendations and decision options for the VP Technology Enablement and leadership team.
Anticipate execution risks, constraints and cross-portfolio dependencies, enabling intervention before they materially affect delivery.
Advise on portfolio adjustments, resource trade-offs and sequencing decisions to protect strategic outcomes and execution priorities.

Stakeholder Integration & Planning Capability

Create alignment across business functions, technology domains and enabling functions to resolve competing priorities and critical planning dependencies.
Facilitate enterprise planning and prioritization forums that lead to clear decisions, ownership and follow-through.
Strengthen planning capability, tools and practices through continuous improvement, knowledge transfer and lessons learned.

Portfolio and resource decisions are supported by clear priorities, evidence-based trade-offs and transparent planning insights.
Critical dependencies, capacity constraints and execution risks are identified and escalated early enough to enable effective intervention.
Leadership has timely, consistent and decision-ready visibility of portfolio health, performance and areas requiring action.
Technology roadmaps and delivery plans remain aligned across business and enabling functions, reducing conflicting priorities and fragmented execution.
Planning standards, governance and capability mature over time, improving accountability and execution predictability.

Minimum Qualifications
