Description

Do you want to build a career that is truly worthwhile? Working at the World Bank provides a unique opportunity for you to help our clients solve their greatest development challenges. The World Bank consists of two entities – the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) and the International Development Association (IDA). It is a global development cooperative owned by 189 member countries. As the largest development bank in the world, the World Bank provides loans, guarantees, risk management products, and advisory services to middle-income and creditworthy low-income countries, and coordinates responses to regional and global challenges.

Background

MNC03 is the country department managing the Egypt, Yemen, and Djibouti country programs. The WBG is a major development partner for all three countries. A rich program of knowledge and analytical work underpins our engagement in all three countries. In Egypt, the Country Partnership Framework (CPF) was approved by the Bank Board in March 2023. The CPF puts the people of Egypt at the center of the strategy in pursuit of three high-level outcomes (HLOs): (1) more and better private sector jobs; (2) enhanced human capital outcomes; and (3) improved resilience to shocks. In addition, the CPF outlines two cross-cutting themes—governance and citizen engagement, and women’s empowerment. The CPF adopts a flexible approach to lending, with a financial envelope of US$7 billion (US$1 billion per year from IBRD and about $2 billion investments by IFC during the entire CPF period), in addition to investments from MIGA.


The MNC03 program is managed out of the Egypt country office. The Egypt Country Office has about 80 staff and works as a regional hub for some other functions also. The Yemen program is headed by a Country Manager (CM) currently based in Amman (plans to move to Yemen when security situation permits). The Djibouti Country Office is headed by a Resident Representative (RR). The Country Director is based in Cairo and is supported in Cairo by Programs Leaders, Senior Operations Officer as well as an Operations Analyst. In addition, in HQ, the office includes a Senior Operations Officer (CPC), Country Officer and a Program Assistant.
