**Description**

Sustainable infrastructure is critical for addressing developmental challenges in emerging markets. IFC offers long-term financing and industry-leading expertise to develop infrastructure projects that provide essential services—including energy & electricity, telecommunications, transportation, water & and sanitation, natural resources—in partnership with the private sector. As part of the World Bank Group, we also work with governments and development partners to create a business environment that attracts private capital to infrastructure sectors.

The Africa Infrastructure team is seeking an Associate Investment Officer (AIO) for our office in Johannesburg, South Africa. IFC’s Investment Officers are responsible for the origination, negotiation, structuring, and subsequent supervision of IFC’s investment projects. The AIO will be a fully integrated member of the team based in Johannesburg who covers projects predominantly in Southern Africa.

**Duties and Accountabilities**

The AIO will support new investment and pre-investment opportunities and execute transactions and actively manage portfolio projects. More specifically, assignments will encompass:
**Business Development**: Gather market intelligence, source and assess opportunities both pre-investment and investment, anticipate market trends, and by employing sector/country knowledge identify bankable projects, then synthesize information into internal reports for decision making purposes. The AIO will also support the development of client strategies and pitchbooks and may be assigned to a coverage team focused on a country cluster which would require working closely with the cluster coordinator to deliver on cluster responsibilities including maintaining and presenting a pipeline of deals and coordinating with various stakeholders for effective coverage.

**Structuring and Negotiation**: Evaluate, structure, negotiate, and close new debt and equity transactions, pre-investment collaborations, portfolio restructurings, capital increases, equity sales, etc. This includes performing credit and risk assessments, financial projections, covenant compliance reviews (debt), and general supervision for both equity and debt.

**Deal Execution and Transaction Management**: Support with the team lead pre-investment engagements and investment transactions incorporating lessons learned from IFC’s earlier investments and pre-investments, portfolio management or advisory mandates. Deliver all transactions and accountabilities of the role efficiently, on a timely and expeditious basis and using best practice standards. Ensure that defined transactional requirements recorded in documentation are executed accordingly. Monitor the portfolio and report development results internally and externally. Coordinate closely with social, environmental, legal, and technical assistance colleagues in structuring transactions, to add value to our clients' businesses, find pragmatic solutions to project and sector challenges, and achieve sustainable development impact.

**Knowledge Sharing**: Build IFC's knowledge base for best practices and participate in knowledge sharing and dissemination. Initiate collaboration, providing advice, peer review and contribution to knowledge products across the World Bank Group (WBG) to strengthen internal and/or external client solutions.

**Coordination with WBG**: Support World Bank and MIGA colleagues on sector reform and unblocking constraints to attracting private sector capital.

**Selection Criteria**
- Master's degree in business, finance, or a similar relevant field of study.
- At least 4+ years of relevant professional experience in a development finance institution, investment/corporate banking, project finance, infrastructure project development, and/or equity investing.
- Strong analytical and financial structuring skills (including financial modeling experience) and sound business judgement.
- Proven track record of sourcing, structuring, and closing private investment projects in infrastructure sectors, ideally including investments in Africa.
- Strong business development and client relationship skills demonstrated by track record; sound business judgment in screening and identifying leads.
- Broad understanding of infrastructure sectors’ (power, transportation, water & and sanitation, natural resources, telecom/technology) industry drivers, latest trends and changes, and standard market transaction arrangements; a deep knowledge within one of the infrastructure sectors and understanding of infrastructure c
