We began operations in Beijing in 2016 and have since grown to 110 approved members worldwide. We are capitalized at USD100 billion and AAA-rated by the major international credit rating agencies. Collaborating with partners, AIIB meets clients' needs by unlocking new capital and investing in infrastructure that is green, technology-enabled and promotes regional connectivity.

The Public Sector Clients Department, Region 1 (PSC1) is responsible for identifying, originating, preparing, executing, and investing in projects with public sector clients in South Asia (except Afghanistan and Pakistan), South East Asia, the Pacific Islands, and Sub-Saharan Africa across the range of AIIB-covered sectors through various financing instruments and solutions. PSC1 leads the coverage of public-sector clients, taking responsibility for project preparation, due diligence, and approval processes of projects, ensuring key economic, commercial, financial, and legal issues are considered and incorporated in the financing structure and legal documentation, and followed through during the implementation phase

The Transport Unit within PSC1 is tasked with carrying out the Department's mandate within the transport sector across Region 1. In addition, the unit is responsible for developing client relationships and managing project teams in the more incipient sectors in Sub-Saharan Africa. These are: health, education, digital and other productive sectors linked to infrastructure

The Senior Investment Officer within PSC1 is responsible for the origination, structuring, and execution of infrastructure-related public-sector transactions contributing towards AIIB's overall lending program by supporting the planning, design, preparation, and implementation of projects/programs that will help meet the rapid growth in the Infrastructure Public Sector in Region 1. The Senior Investment Officer is expected to work closely with other relevant AIIB departments, assist management in preparing strategies for building the investment pipeline, and assist in implementing these strategies. Training and developing junior team members will be an important responsibility.

Responsibilities:

• Ensure key economic, financial, technical, legal, environmental, and social issues are considered, and mitigants are incorporated in the financing structure and legal documentation during the project preparation.
• Participate in overseeing the implementation of AIIB's investment operations with the objective of enhancing quality and accelerating project implementation, with a focus on delivering results.
• Lead or participate in dialogue with clients, co-financing partners and other stakeholders on strategic issues, and the implementation of AIIB's investment.

• Conduct project risk assessment of projects and programs, and advise project teams on mitigation strategies to manage such risks.
• Carry out due diligence and institutional assessments on executing agencies, including implementation capacity assessments of project counterparts.
• Support business development activities in public infrastructure sector projects by interacting with clients, governments, other institutions (commercial banks, multilateral agencies, NGOs, consulting firms, contractors, intermediaries, etc), gathering information on the ground, and building business relationships.
• Undertake regular supervision and implementation support missions and site visits, as needed, to ensure that the projects will meet development objectives and to help the borrowing governments and implementing agencies to address any implementation issues they might be facing.
• Support business development and implementation support activities, as needed, (specifically during mission trips) in close coordination with the sector leads.
  
  

Requirements:

• Minimum of 8-10 years of relevant working experience, preferably in a multilateral development bank, undertaking economic feasibility studies for transport investments, urban transport development planning and/or traffic management/analysis.
