IFC - International Finance CorporationDar es Salaam, Tanzania

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 in developing countries. In fiscal year 2020, we invested $22 billion in private companies and financial institutions in developing countries, leveraging the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity. For more information, visit www.ifc.org.

THE ROLE OF THE WBG IN FINANCE, COMPETITIVENESS & INNOVATION

Creating Markets Advisory for Africa (CMA) is a Global Practice of the International Finance Corporation that 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, IFC strengthens the WBG’s evolving advisory approach to development finance: to maximize finance for development and to leverage private sector investments for sustainable and inclusive growth.  

With the largest economy and population in the East Africa Community (EAC), Tanzania has attained a lower middle-income country status but struggling to improve economic productivity that would create enough jobs for its fast-growing youth population. Transformation to a more modern industrialized economy that would accelerate job growth and higher incomes requires the strengthening of investment climate and conducive government policies for increasing private investment and entrepreneurship. Support to financially inclusive, gender-empowered private sector growth agenda is enshrined in the Systematic Country Diagnosis (SCD) and Country Partnership Framework (CPF), and at the heart of IFC dialogue with the authorities. The timing of this assignment is critical to support the client’s commitment to structural reforms necessary to unlock economic growth, by strengthening the Bank’s engagement and expert resources around financial and private sector development and competitiveness issues.

The Investment Climate Advisory Services (ICAS) technical assistance program in Tanzania, implemented by IFC, aims to support the Government of Tanzania (GoT) to promote sustainable and inclusive economic growth through better economic foundations, increased trade and investment and business growth support. The five-year program, which is formally titled, the Tanzanian Business Enabling Environment Support (BEES) Program (the “Program”) has a budget of $6.7 million USD which has been secured through a trust fund supported by the Government of Canada, Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade & Development (DFATD).  

JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
