IFC is seeking a Senior Investment Officer for its Infrastructure and Natural Resources (INR) upstream team in the Asia Pacific region. The position is based in Jakarta/ Manila.

While IFC continues to expand its traditional roles of advisory services and investment operations, IFC embarked on an ambitious growth strategy (IFC 3.0) to stimulate more investment activity. This strategy calls for generating opportunities by proactively working “Upstream” (i.e., prior to and/ or in anticipation of a project or investment), to create, deepen, and expand markets and to imagine, design, unblock and implement investment projects. It requires taking a systematic approach to identifying investment opportunities (at project and program level) and supporting development and investment of those opportunities with the private sector, as well as identifying and managing regulatory and policy bottlenecks that prevent the flow of private capital into markets and opportunities, through World Bank Group engagement on policy reforms and programmatic interventions at the country and sector level. 

The Infrastructure and Natural Resources (INR) business line provides financing solutions to clients focused on the power, transport, telecoms and municipal and environmental infrastructure sectors. A strategic focus for the INR team in Asia Pacific is to support clients (both public at the subnational level and private sector clients) to find decarbonization solutions in these sectors and to ramp up investments in urban infrastructure, transport and telecoms. IFC is seeking a Senior Investment Officer for its INR upstream and advisory team, with expertise in one or more of urban infrastructure, municipal finance, transport and telecoms sectors. The selected candidate will focus on developing a high-quality Upstream & Advisory pipeline of infrastructure projects, under the supervision of the Regional Upstream and Advisory Manager.
