Riyadh, Ar Riyāḑ, Saudi Arabia international finance corporation Full time

International Finance Corporation, 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. Our mission is to leverage the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity on a livable planet.

Private sector financial development is essential to the promotion of successful and sustainable economies in emerging markets. Infrastructure plays a key role in sustained economic growth by providing critical public services to citizens and a platform for efficient business operations that create jobs. The private sector plays an increasingly important role in financing and delivering infrastructure and public services, including through Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs).

The IFC's transaction advisory services department (CTA) is housed in the IFC Cross Cutting Solutions Vice Presidency (CCSVPU) and consists of two business lines: PPP Transaction Advisory (C3P) and Corporate Finance Services (CFS). CTA has over 25 years of experience and employs over 120 staff globally, currently managing over 100 active client engagements. Within the WBG, IFC plays the leading role in mobilizing private capital for the WBG. In FY24, CTA mobilized $4.7B of private investment (approximately 25% of IFC's total core mobilization), with expectations for growth in line with the WBG's drive to expand private capital mobilization, particularly in emerging markets.

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Infrastructure Project Manager to support the regional team, management, and specific transaction teams in processing and implementing PPP mandates where IFC acts as Lead Transaction Advisor to government clients. The selected candidate will be based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, reporting to the C3P Regional Manager for MCT.

Roles and Responsibilities
  • Work closely with the Riyadh-based Hub Leader and project team leaders as part of project teams to assist in the origination, due diligence, structuring, negotiations, and bidding of PPP projects in the MCT region.
  • Contribute to origination and marketing activities, including preparation of pitchbooks and PPP advisory proposals, market analysis, early-stage project assessments, and client presentations.
  • Prepare memos and documentations needed for internal approval and governance processes.
  • Support the team with administrative tasks such as reporting, filing, clients' integrity due diligence.
  • Perform financial analysis and build or review financial models.
  • Assist project team leaders in project management, including preparing terms of reference, procurement, and coordination of external consultants' work.
  • Assist in reviewing due diligence reports, including data collection and analysis, and in the review of legal, commercial, environmental, and social, and technical outputs and documentation.
  • Support the project team leader with articulating a PPP structure and recommendation to the client and drafting a transaction structure report.
  • Assist in preparing information memorandums and reviewing pre-qualification, tender documents, and PPP contracts.
  • Assist in marketing PPP transactions to potential investors, conducting roadshows, and international competitive tenders and facilitating commercial/financial closure.
  • Participate in meetings and negotiations with government clients and investors.
  • Assist in other project or CTA, IFC, and WBG strategy-related activities as needed (research, internal notes, etc.).
Selection Criteria
  • MBA or Masters degree in Finance, Management, Business, or a related field.
  • Minimum 6 years of relevant experience in the infrastructure sector and/or with a financial or advisory institution involved in PPP transaction advisory, M&A, privatization, project finance, or private equity investment.
  • Knowledge of infrastructure/PPP industry and market players/relevant sector drivers and trends (including power, transport, social infrastructure sectors).
  • Proven analytical and financial modeling skills; ability to provide quality control and inputs to financial models prepared by analysts.
  • Good understanding of key investment/PPP agreements and legal and bankability aspects of infrastructure transactions.
  • Strong research, analytical, and conceptual skills; ability to communicate ideas clearly and confidently.
  • Ability to interact effectively with government clients and stakeholders, demonstrating appropriate behavioral and communications skills.
  • Ability to work on multiple transactions and deliver high-quality work within deadlines to meet team objectives.
  • Ability to draft documents and reports that are thorough, well-organized but concise, focusing on key points for the intended audience.
  • Excellent English written, verbal communications, and presentation skills; Arabic is preferred.
  • Ability and willingness to travel occasionally in the region.
