IFC has launched an ambitious evolution of its strategy to stimulate more investment activity, especially in Low Income Countries (LICs) and Fragile and Conflict Affected States (FCS). This new strategy aims at moving further upstream of where IFC has traditionally operated to support clients in riskier markets by proactively working in these countries to create, deepen, and expand the markets themselves as well as develop a pipeline of investable projects. This strategy relies on a new approach that calls for closer WBG collaboration to maximize finance for development (“Cascade”) by delivering private capital mobilization and closer work among IFC departments to create markets for private investment and increase the pipeline of investable projects. Working with clients, we will first seek private sector solutions to address development challenges—where such solutions are advisable and can be effective—and reserve public financing for projects only when other options are suboptimal.

IFC’s PPP & Corporate Finance Advisory Department (CTA) is composed of two divisions: (i) the Public Private Partnership (PPP) Division; and (ii) the Corporate Finance Services (CFS) Division. The CTA department delivered over 30% of IFC’s long term commitments in FY 23 through private capital mobilization and is looking to implement a new scale up strategy to deliver more.

The PPP Division advises governments in designing and bringing to market commercially robust PPP projects that provide high quality, affordable and efficient infrastructure and social services to the public. Drawing on more than 25 years of experience with over 360 projects completed in 102 countries, the Division currently has over 120 staff across the globe, with technical, financial, contractual and procurement expertise. The team is currently managing 100+ active client engagements to help national and municipal governments partner with the private sector to improve basic services such as electricity, health, education, sanitation, and roads. IFC’s PPP Division also draws on the World Bank’s expertise in institutional reforms, sector structuring, legal and regulatory frameworks, tariff structures and regulation, and international best practice to strengthen and complement IFC’s transaction-oriented approach. The CFS Division provides transaction advisory services to private sector clients, focusing on Mergers and Acquisition (M&A) advisory solutions and providing ad hoc structuring advice. Through M&A advisory, CFS provides buy side and sell side services, helps clients creating opportunities and entering new markets or identifying and attracting new partners and investors. CFS focuses on cross-border transactions, mobilizes third party capital and brings clients into new markets.

The CTA team focuses on advising on the following types of transactions, across all infrastructure sectors with a focus on utilities, transport, and social sectors (health, education and affordable housing):

- BOT-type projects
- Concessions, privatizations, Lease and Management Contracts
- Restructuring and privatization of state-owned enterprises
- Asset monetization

The Africa region covers the continent of Africa and has recently prepared a scale up strategy to deliver higher private capital mobilization and impact. The CTA Africa regional transaction team is now seeking a Senior Investment Officer with significant market and industry experience to help manage, grow and develop its business in Southern Africa sub region, which comprises of twelve countries (Angola, Botswana, Comoros, Eswatini, Lesotho, Madagascar, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Seychelles, South Africa, Zimbabwe). The position will be based in Johannesburg, South Africa and will report to the Regional Manager and Head of CTA, Africa. The Africa team is currently based across the region with hubs in Dakar, Johannesburg, Nairobi and Cairo. The team members work on both new business development and execution of transactions in its active portfolio. He/she will act as the hub leader for Southern Africa CTA business but will also be required to work across the broader Africa region, as required. He/she will be part of collective decision-making process on strategies for business growth, pricing, targets, staffing, recruitment etc.

**Duties and Accountabilities**:

- Originate, execute, and manage a pipeline of mandates and programs in PPPs across the region in the infrastructure and public services sectors with a good balance between strategic priorities, geographic distribution and country mix.
