Currently serving as Head of HRP&P Business Support, Planning & Performance Management at Saudi Aramco, Al Maymouni contributes to the planning, performance, and business-support functions within the organization’s human resources landscape. Her leadership journey has been shaped by diverse roles that have enabled her to develop a broad understanding of how people, systems, data, policy, and organizational strategy intersect.

Building a Strategic HR Career

Al Maymouni’s professional journey with Saudi Aramco began in roles focused on corporate workforce analytics and HR systems. As an HR Analyst within Corporate Workforce Analytics, she developed exposure to workforce-related data and organizational requirements, building an analytical foundation that would later support her advancement into broader HR responsibilities.

She subsequently served as a Business System Analyst within the Data Management function of Saudi Aramco’s HR Systems & Support Department. This experience strengthened her understanding of HR technology, information management, and the systems that underpin effective workforce decision-making.

Her progression continued through HR policy and planning, where she served as an HR Analyst before taking on the role of HR Policy Lead in 2017. Over nearly six years in that position, she developed deeper expertise in HR policy and compensation while contributing to the development and management of practices supporting the organization’s workforce.

This progression illustrates a career built not around a single HR discipline, but across interconnected areas of people management, analytics, systems, policy, and planning.

Expanding Global HR Expertise

A significant chapter in Al Maymouni’s career came with her move to Aramco Americas in Houston, where she served as Global Total Rewards Manager from May 2023 to July 2025.

Her work in total rewards complemented her earlier expertise in HR policy and compensation, creating a broader understanding of how organizations can align workforce programs with business priorities.

Returning to Saudi Arabia, Al Maymouni assumed her current leadership position as Head of HRP&P Business Support, Planning & Performance Management in August 2025. The role represents another step in her progression toward strategic HR leadership, combining business support, planning, and performance management.
