Description
IFC - a member of the World Bank Group - is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, and influence to create markets and opportunities. Our mission is to leverage the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity on a livable planet.
The Regional Vice President (RVP) for Asia & the Pacific (APAC) is looking to recruit an Extended Term Consultant (ETC) for the Vice Presidency's (VPU) front office. The APAC VPU oversees IFC's engagements in two subregions - East Asia & the Pacific and South Asia. The Vice President is part of IFC's Senior Management and interacts closely with the Board, IBRD, MIGA, and external partners.
The ETC will provide support on the work program, with a special focus on the region's efforts related to the Health sector in APAC. In particular, the ETC will focus on analyzing how IFC can sustainably expand its reach and impact in the sector through both advisory and investment operations. This includes close collaboration with relevant subject matter experts across the WBG and leveraging ongoing initiatives, such as workstreams under the Global Challenge Program for Health (Health GCP).
The position provides a unique opportunity to gain an overview of IFC's operations in the APAC region and broader issues of strategy, organization, as well as interact with a wide range of people across the World Bank Group.
The position will be based in Washington, DC.
Roles and Responsibilities
- Support the RVP on the implementation of the work program, especially in the health sector.
- Engage in in-depth conversations with subject matter experts across IFC and the WBG to understand the status, timeline and different workstreams associated with the health sector.
- Focus particularly on the roles and activities related to IFC and IFC Asia to ensure alignment and integration with broader WBG and IFC initiatives.
- Assist with the preparation of reporting materials for various audiences on the region's business performance, development results and key economic updates.
- Against the backdrop of the Health GCP, in collaboration with IFC Asia regional and industry teams, map the investment, upstream and advisory efforts (both existing and expected) in health sector.
- Assess how these initiatives align with and support the objectives of the Health GCP, ensuring that there is a clear and strategic connection between regional efforts and the GCP.
- Identify and analyze high-impact health interventions where IFC's unique value-add and the collaborative One WBG approach are clearly demonstrated.
- Support review of materials related to investment and advisory projects and country / regional strategies.
