Sydney, New South Wales, Australia World Bank Group Full time

Do you want to build a career that is truly worthwhile? Working at the World Bank Group provides a unique opportunity for you to help our clients solve their greatest development challenges. The World Bank Group is one of the largest sources of funding and knowledge for developing countries; a unique global partnership of five institutions dedicated to ending extreme poverty, increasing shared prosperity and promoting sustainable development. With 189 member countries and more than 120 offices worldwide, we work with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges. For more information, visit

Country and position context

The World Bank's Pacific department (EACNF) covers twelve countries (Fiji, Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia (FSM), Palau, Papua New Guinea, Nauru, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Tonga, Tuvalu, and Vanuatu) and is home to more fragile states than any other region outside of Africa. Over the past few years, we have substantially scaled-up our program in the Pacific. Lending volumes have more than doubled with 91 active operations and US$2.7b committed currently. The program offers many opportunities to test innovative approaches designed to maximize impacts in contexts characterized by remoteness, fragility, small size of human settlements and capacity constraints. The program focuses on four main thematic areas: (i) promoting sound economic management, (ii) strengthening human development outcomes, (iii) improving service delivery and fostering sustainable growth; and (iv) responding to climate change risks, especially through adaptation. Building resilience to shocks, promoting gender equality, and encouraging regional/global integration are key cross-sector objectives.

A large and rapid increase in size of the PNG and Pacific Department's portfolio in a fragile and capacity-constrained environment means that managing the portfolio requires additional support to client countries. The Bank has been piloting several new approaches that address development projects implementation challenges in Fragile and Small States and has scaled up its work on supporting Capacity Building in client countries.
The World Bank in Pacific Islands:
