The Economic Policy Research Department (CER) is in the Economics and Private Sector Development Vice Presidency Unit (CED VPU). This new department is a strong hub for the analytical work in support of IFC’s investment and advisory activities and economics research on issues related to private sector development. Specifically, this department conducts primary research that results in a series of flagship IFC reports, articles, and academic publications to IFC’s profile as a thought leader in private sector development. This department also organizes conferences and round tables with external academics and experts, conducts sector analysis for Country Private Sector Diagnostics, works with IFC clients and Operations to analyze bespoke requests, and provides analytical inputs to guide IFC’s strategy.

**Duties and responsibilities**:

- Within the priority area(s) above, oversee the production of economic research reports, articles, and academic publications based on new analysis and data, providing strategic guidance, oversight, and quality assurance to the team of economists. Research findings should be relevant to IFC operations, investors, and policymakers, and should contribute to the global dialogue amongst business and government leaders and other thought leaders.
- Lead the development of modeling approaches, operationally-relevant analytical tools, and creation and dissemination of new databases to assess climate risks and decarbonization pathways. Work with IFC staff, WBG experts, and leading academics to identify opportunities for new surveys, sources of real-time data, and other new methodologies for IFC research.
- Oversee and shape the communication strategy within the focus areas above, including publications, blogs, and digital assets; conferences, talks, and other engagement with academic and business thought leaders in relevant fields; and convening a Community of Interest for economists and researchers across the IFC.
- Draw on findings from economic research to inform IFC strategy, Investment and Advisory operations, Upstream engagements, and WBG policy work. Establish a feedback loop between outreach and dissemination and research to foster innovation and ensure continuous improvement in the relevance and impact of IFC research.
- In partnership with Operations Management, ensure that lessons learnt from IFC’s operations as well as IFC’s knowledge and experience of private sector development policy and economics are captured, curated and disseminated across IFC Operations and in the WBG.
- Develop new global engagements and interface with university economics departments, the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and other International Financial Institutions and external partners on one or more thematic areas above.
- Contribute to the growth and development of IFC Paris Hub by engaging effectively with Regional Economics and other Paris-based colleagues as well as with external partners such as academic and development institutions (particularly those based in Europe).
- Supervise the work of the Department’s PhD economists, data scientists, and other researchers to ensure quality, consistency, and conformity to the highest levels of rigor. Guide colleagues on program design and management, project delivery, and professional development.
- Drive and inspire technical excellence within the Department by creating an environment of learning, innovation, and knowledge sharing.
- Deliver the agreed upon work program through cost effective use of resources and ensure timely delivery of high-quality outputs.

**Selection Criteria**
