**Western and Central Africa (W AFR) Region**

Western and Central Africa is a region with diverse cultures, beliefs, languages, and lifestyles - marked by contrasts of stability and conflict; affluence and poverty. Home to about half a billion people, it encompasses 22 countries stretching from the westernmost point of Africa across the equator and partly along the Atlantic Ocean to the Republic of Congo in the South. The sub-region is rich in resources and brimming of opportunities. It made impressive progress in regional cooperation and includes two monetary unions - the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) and the Central African Economic and Monetary Community (CEMAC) that cover 13 countries between them.

**The Finance, Competitiveness and Innovation Global Practice**

The World Bank Group’s Finance, Competitiveness & Innovation Global Practice (FCI) combines expertise in the financial sector with expertise in private sector development to foster private sector-led growth and help create markets in client countries. Through this work, FCI strengthens the World Bank Group’s evolving approach to development finance: to maximize finance for development and to leverage private sector investments for sustainable and inclusive growth.

Within countries, FCI works with governments to create an enabling environment where financial stability, access to finance and risk management provide a foundation to crowd-in private sector investment, create capital markets, and accelerate equitable growth. At the same time, the practice is focused on identifying firm
- and industry-level constraints to deliver reforms which can drive growth and accelerate job creation (including access to finance, innovation, special economic zones, industry solutions, entrepreneurship, etc.). Boosting firm-level efficiency and productivity centers on adopting better technologies, including digital ones.

FCI comprises close to 800 staff working across more than 120 countries. The Practice focuses on six thematic areas:

- Financial Stability & Integrity (ensuring countries’ financial systems are stable, sound and transparent)
- Financial Inclusion, Infrastructure & Access (strengthening market infrastructures, and ensuring households and firms have access to financial services)
- Firm Capabilities & Innovation (creating the enabling environment for businesses to be competitive, efficient and cutting-edge)
- Long-Term Finance (helping countries deepen and diversify their financial sectors, facilitating long term finance through capital markets, and strengthening the role of institutional investors)
- Climate & Risk Management (supporting countries to become more resilient and able to mitigate the impact of natural disasters combining financial and insurance tools)

**Roles & Responsibilities**:
As a Program Assistant, you will report to the Practice Manager of EAWF1 and work closely with the Operations Officer for the team, as well as with TTLs. Your primary

responsibilities will be the following:
**Budget and Portfolio Monitoring**:

- Prepare standard system generated and customized reports such as Portfolio, Trust Fund and ASA reports, with guidance from the Operations Officer as needed.

**Operational and Administrative Support**

- Support the Operations Officer in providing quality enhancement function for project-related documents, adhering to departmental, VPU, and institutional guidelines.
