  • Bring to the table complementary and catalytic finance and products that can help a marginal transaction with high developmental impact potential become successful.
  • Serve as a corporate resource in leading multidisciplinary teams to develop leads into new deals that effectively balance IFC's additionality, financial risks and rewards, sustainable development impact, and opportunities for innovation and scalability. Sustain longterm relationships with clients and other stakeholders (e.g., government officials) at the senior level and engage effectively with other syndicate lenders at senior management levels.
  • Proactively manage a portfolio of highly complex investments and strategic or top tier clients, identify opportunities for repeat business, and bring these opportunities to financial close when appropriate.
  • Work with country and sector teams to generate ideas about new investment opportunities, new products, and platform businesses by leveraging sectorspecific data analysis, stress testing various operating models, having dialogues with stakeholders, and sharing information across the WBG.
  • Work with regional leadership to prioritize Upstream programs and ensure the identified earlystage project development engagement activities are properly staffed.
  • Proactively convene stakeholders, form partnerships, and connect expertise from IFC operations staff, industry specialists, WB's Global Practices, sponsors, clients, and other external parties to enable delivery of Upstream programs.
  • Work with country and sector teams to generate ideas about new investment opportunities, new products, and platform businesses by leveraging sectorspecific data analysis, stress testing various operating models, having dialogues with stakeholders, and sharing information across the WBG.
