The new hire should be available to engage in infrastructure projects in LAC with a focus on Colombia and Central America. The overall goal of the job holder is to perform the regular activities of an Associate at a Project Finance/Infrastructure department.

  2. Draft and present memos of relevant early-stage investment opportunities for discussion with management.
  3. Actively manage and/or support portfolio investments, including credit risk assessment, financial analysis, processing waivers, disbursements, etc.
  4. Assist in mapping and screening business opportunities in infrastructure sectors; undertaking market research and performing corresponding integrity checks.
  5. Build complex financial models from scratch, perform financial analysis, and/or provide quality control over financial analysis and projections developed by an analyst to evaluate the benefits and risks of investments.
  6. Produce country and sector analysis, marketing materials, and pitch books.
  7. Support the development of a strong pipeline of investment opportunities by anticipating market trends and employing sector/country knowledge.
  8. Coordinate closely with social, environmental, legal, and technical specialists to add value to our clients' businesses, find pragmatic solutions to specific sector challenges, and achieve sustainable development impact.
  9. Support teams managing relationships with clients, global and regional private businesses, banking and multilateral partners, and government officials to further develop the sector and to develop specific investment opportunities.

Selection Criteria

The following are requirements (candidates will not be considered if they do not meet any of those):

  1. A master's degree in a related field of education, including business, finance, or economics, or an area of expertise specific to a sector or industry specialty.
  2. Ability to conduct business in English and Spanish, both verbally and in writing.
  3. 4-8 years of relevant experience. Relevant experience could include project finance, private equity, or investment and commercial banking.
  4. Strong knowledge of Excel and financial modeling, and ability to analyze and form conclusions on company financial information.

The following are highly desirable:

  1. Experience in infrastructure transactions in Latin America and the Caribbean, ideally in Colombia and Central America.
  2. Genuine interest in, and knowledge of relevant infrastructure and regional sector trends.
  3. Strong interpersonal skills and ability to interact effectively and independently with clients and colleagues from various cultural backgrounds.
