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

IFC Equity Mobilization Department (AMC), within the Treasury & Syndications Vice President Unit (VPU), mobilizes and manages capital for private equity investments in emerging markets. AMC was created in 2009 to provide investors with access to IFC's emerging markets investment pipeline and to expand the supply of long-term capital to these markets, enhancing IFC's development goals and generating profits for investors by leveraging IFC's global reach, standards, investment approach, and track record. AMC has raised US$10.2 billion through 13 investment funds that invest across a variety of sectors, geographies, and strategies. Please see AMC's website at www.ifcamc.org for more information on AMC's business.

AMC runs a competitive and rewarding Analyst Program for between 4 and 6 Analysts each year. The Analyst Program seeks to hire individuals with 2-3 years of relevant experience in investment banking, consulting, or private equity and provides a platform for further personal and professional development prior to business school. Selected analysts will gain firsthand experience working and investing in emerging markets and will have the opportunity to work across various sectors and geographies. The Analyst Program will provide opportunities for international travel and extensive interaction with IFC colleagues worldwide, allowing Analysts to build a truly global network.

The AMC Analyst Program is intended to employ Analysts for 2-3 years with a maximum of 4 years. Beyond this time limit, Analysts are encouraged to consider business school or other graduate programs. Analysts are expected to work through 30 June of their year of departure from AMC. Former AMC Analysts have gained admission to competitive graduate programs, and others have transitioned to further challenging and interesting professional opportunities that have leveraged their AMC experience.

Role & Responsibilities

Analysts will serve as members of the AMC investment teams. They will work across various funds, providing analytical support to teams throughout the investment process, in the supervision of existing investments, and in the overall management of the funds. In particular, the Analyst will be responsible for:

• analyzing financial statements, creating financial models, reviewing due diligence reports, and conducting industry, market, and company research;

• preparing investment materials for the funds' Investment Committees in close coordination with the rest of the AMC and IFC project teams;

• preparing internal and external strategy documents and presentations;

• assisting the AMC team in supervising the ongoing performance of the funds' portfolio companies;

• assisting in providing timely delivery of information to investors; and

• preparing marketing and other communication materials.

Selection Criteria

• Bachelor's degree (specialization in finance or related field).

• 2-3 years of relevant experience in private equity, investment banking, or consulting.

• Strong analytical and investment assessment skills, solid knowledge of accounting, financial statement analysis, and financial modeling

• Ability to work effectively under pressure in a diverse, team-oriented environment.

• Strong client service orientation with an openness to feedback and new ideas.

• Ability to problem solve, think through solutions with limited supervision, and proactively seek counsel where needed.
