funded, and well-governed project portfolio; enforces a group-wide project-management framework;
tracks benefits realization and performance KPIs; and provides timely, insight-driven
recommendations that keep executives, departments, and country teams on course. By leading a
multidisciplinary SPMO team and collaborating closely with Finance, Information Capital, Operations,

business impact across all six GCC markets.

and present funding recommendations to the Executive Committee.

approved budgets, flagging forecast variances early, and providing actionable insights to the
CSIO and Finance leadership for timely corrective decisions.
• Maintain value registers for each initiative; compare planned vs. realized revenue uplift, cost
optimization, and NPV, ensuring benefit-realization reviews are completed
Performance Management & Business Insights
• Oversee Balanced-Scorecard and OKR execution across the Group, validating KPI data integrity
and alignment with strategic targets.
• Lead the monthly Senior Management Review (SMR) meeting by presenting consolidated Group
performance dashboards, spotlighting variances and strategic risks, and securing clear
