  • Support analyzing and reporting internally on portfolio data and missing information and support follow-up on pending issues.
  • Support client E&S capacity-building.

Selection Criteria

  • Advanced degree (Masters) in science, engineering, social sciences, finance, or other relevant disciplines.
  • Minimum of seven years of professional experience working on E&S management, monitoring, and/or due diligence, with a preference for financial sector experience in the Middle East, Central Asia, Pakistan, and Afghanistan region.
