Description

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. Our mission is to leverage the power of the private sector to end extreme poverty and boost shared prosperity on a livable planet.

IFC’s Human Resources (HR) Department partners with the business to develop and implement workforce strategies. The HR department includes three Centers of Expertise (COEs)—Strategy & Organizational Effectiveness, Global Talent Acquisition & Mobility, and Talent & Incentives—and two Client Services teams that provide support to HQ and regions.

The Regional HR Client Services team in Latin America and the Caribbean is looking to recruit an HR Business Partner to facilitate the HR agenda in partnership with IFC Management and staff. On a day-to-day basis, the partner will serve as an advisor to staff and management and will be the focal point for her/his clients regarding all HR matters throughout the employment lifecycle, including but not limited to onboarding, staff development and deployment, performance management, workforce planning, compensation and benefits, learning, career counseling, and policy advice.

The position is based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the selected candidate will report to the HR Client Services Regional Lead.

Support the design and implementation of organizational effectiveness initiatives and facilitate the development and management of high performing teams.
