Description
IFC—a member of the World Bank Group—is the largest global development institution focused on the private sector in emerging markets. We work in more than 100 countries, using our capital, expertise, and influence to create markets and opportunities in developing countries.

Within IFC, the Corporate Risk Management Department (CRM) is responsible for risk management at a corporate level: this includes Capital Management and Enterprise Risk, Operational Risk and Business Continuity, Treasury Risk and Investment Valuation.
CRM’s Capital Management and Enterprise Risk Unit (CRMCA) measures the current and projected risks in IFC’s investment portfolio to ensure IFC’s ongoing financial sustainability. Doing so, CRMCA utilizes a variety of integrated risk models, such as for economic capital, capital forecasting, stress testing or risk-adjusted performance measurement, to develop and maintain IFC’s risk management policies.
CRMCA is conducting a search for an Associate Risk Officer to support the development and maintenance of CRMCA’s risk models, with a focus on financial forecasting and profitability analysis.
Duties and Accountabilities:
The successful candidate will support CRMCA’s financial forecasting and profitability analysis via:
• The collection and analysis of risk-relevant and financial data from IFC’s source systems to support the update, maintenance, and enhancements of IFC’s financial forecasting and profitability models;
• The periodic analysis and reporting of results produced by IFC’s financial forecasting model, as well as analysis and reporting of IFC’s portfolio profitability;
• The continuing improvement of IFC’s financial forecasting and profitability models by contributing to the analysis, design, and testing of the risk applications;
• The interaction with other departments, such as to obtain specific risk-relevant and financial information, or to liaise with IT.
Selection Criteria
While main responsibilities of the position will be within the area of financial forecasting and profitability analysis, the candidate is also expected to work closely with other teams within CRM on other risk-related assignments as required.
• MS or higher degree in Finance, Statistics, Economics, or a related subject.
• 5 years of work experience in financial risk management or a related field is preferred, ideally including experience directly related to financial forecasting and profitability analysis;
• Demonstrated experience handling and analyzing large data sets (for example using Excel, R, or other statistical applications);
• General affinity with designing, implementing, or testing analytical models and IT solutions is considered a strong plus, as are basic programming skills (particularly with VBA, Java, and/or Python);
• Experience working with large databases, including data manipulation and extraction using SQL, is a plus;
• Knowledge of IFC’s internal financial and risk-relevant data systems is considered a strong plus;
• Knowledge of IFC’s financial statements, capital adequacy framework and profitability metrics, as well as an understanding of rating agency methodologies for assessing IFC and other MDBs, is considered a strong plus;
• General knowledge of financial markets and investment products;
• A strong work ethic and a solid team player to work in the international and multicultural work environment within CRMCA and across the IFC; organizational skills and the ability to multitask, meet tight deadlines and work efficiently in multicultural teams;
• Strong interpersonal skills, attention to detail and resourcefulness.
World Bank Group Core Competencies
