Job Description
Planning Manager
Maleda Tech
• Own and maintain the full milestone and work-back plan across all planning phases, track progress against key deadlines, and proactively flag risks or slippage before they become escalations. • Collect and organize initiative submissions from across the organization and cross-functional partners, flag duplicates and gaps, and prepare first-pass above-the-line versus below-the-line prioritization materials for leadership review. • Compile prioritized initiatives with confirmed owners, go-live dates, OKR connections, and metrics targets, keeping the roadmap current and accurate throughout the planning cycle. • Ensure every prioritized initiative connects to at least one key result, surface misalignments, and support the planning lead in resolving tensions before executive review. • Track cross-functional dependencies, identify owners and commitment levels, and follow up with partners to confirm commitments are on track. • Prepare materials for planning forums, strategy workshops, review sessions, and leadership meetings, including agendas, pre-read decks, consolidated data inputs, decision trackers, and post-session outputs. • Support the development of an annual plan deck and business review deliverables by synthesizing roadmap data and OKR progress into clear, exec-ready narratives.
Job Requirements
- 6 to 8 or more years of experience in program management, roadmap planning, or a highly cross-functional planning operations role.
- Strong proficiency with Google Suite (Docs, Sheets, Slides), including comfort with templates and lightweight automation.
- Proven ability to manage complex, multi-phase workstreams with competing deadlines and multiple stakeholder groups.
- Strong analytical skills with the ability to work within OKR frameworks, initiative data, and capacity inputs to surface insights and alignment gaps.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to distill complex planning inputs into clear, action-oriented artifacts and exec-ready materials.
- A track record of operating in fast-moving, cross-functional environments where proactive communication and disciplined follow-through are non-negotiable.
- A highly organized self-starter mindset with a strong bias toward documentation, structured process, and context preservation.
