    Description
IFC has embarked on an ambitious new growth strategy (IFC 3.0) to stimulate more investment activity in frontier markets.

This strategy calls for generating our own opportunities by proactively working "Upstream" to create, deepen, and expand markets and to imagine, design and implement investment projects.

It requires taking a systematic approach to understanding the regulatory and sector bottlenecks that prevent the flow of private capital into productive investment in our member countries, and addressing these bottlenecks through World Bank Group engagement on policy reforms and programmatic interventions at the country and sector level.

It also requires capacity to leverage WBG programs and projects to develop our own proactive sector interventions and to imagine and design projects even in the absence of reforms.


At the same time, IFC has pledged to significantly increase its investments in climate-related projects and to promote digitalization across industries and sectors, as a way to further sustainability and inclusiveness in emerging markets.

IFC plans to deliver on these commitments by working with clients to help them develop and implement their own climate and digitalization strategies and projects.

Key areas of focus include the promotion of low-carbon solutions, including renewable energy, green buildings, circularity, and resource efficiency, and increased use of technology and artificial intelligence.


The Financial Institution Group (FIG) is one of the major industry groups at IFC responsible for managing roughly 40% of IFC's overall business in terms of volume, capital at risk, profitability, and development reach.

FIG engages in a wide range of sub-sectors including Microfinance, SME, Gender, Climate, Insurance, Capital Markets, Housing, Distressed Assets, Global Trade Finance, and other areas.

FIG provides investment and advisory solutions to hundreds of financial intermediaries in emerging markets to enable them to play a positive role in economic growth.

FIG's advisory services are closely coordinated with investment operations and help banks and Financial Institutions (FIs) to build or improve their operations in several areas, including Sustainability and Climate Finance.


Climate Business is one of the strategic priorities of the WBG, and IFC has set itself a very ambitious climate action plan and reach a climate target of 35% of total investments from 2021 to 2025 (including energy efficiency, renewable energy, cleaner production and resource efficiency, waste and wastewater management, and green buildings).

To contribute to those targets, FIG has already quadrupled its climate finance investments over the last three years, working with FIs to scale up their financing of climate friendly projects.

The team comprises of technical specialists, investment and operations officers and project managers who provide advisory services (AS) and investment services (IS) to financial institutions.

The focus is to support IFC's client banks and non-bank financial institutions build viable and scalable climate finance operations, leveraging capital markets as well as their client base and partnerships with various market players to promote mitigation and adaptation to climate change.


The AS Climate Finance Team is looking for a highly motivated (Associate) Operations Officer to support the team's portfolio of advisory projects for financial institutions in Latin-America and the Caribbean (LAC).


Roles and Responsibilities:

  • Plan, coordinate, supervise and provide technical and administrative support for the required activities and achievement of the LAC Climate Finance program work plan and expected results during the project;
  • Actively participate in and support the process of scoping, and designing new regional level activities;
  • Represent the projects in terms of relations with governmental and private institutions involved in the projects;
  • Plan, organize and carry out the projectrelated activities in conjunction with stakeholders and clients;
  • Develop and review project proposals, donor reports and project supervision reports;
  • Develop high impact/added value pitch presentation and proposals to prospective clients;
  • Coordinate and implement project activities for specific client's advisory engagements;
  • Responsible for project financial management (e.g. projections, expenditures, budges updates, etc.);
  • Ensure adequate staffing to execute advisory projects;
  • Identify appropriate consultants for advisory assignments, from drafting terms of referen
