Purpose of Job

EBRD’s business model is increasingly reliant on access to donor funds and donor expertise. Financial resources from the donors for technical cooperation and other grant or concessional instruments are also a crucial component to help the Bank to deliver on its transition mandate. DCF is the EBRD focal point for mobilising and managing donor funds and works as a catalyst, working closely with other departments in the Bank, and ensures that donor priorities are well understood in the Bank and that the Bank’s priorities are well understood by donors.

This post focuses on Country of Operation (CoO) donors. The Associate Manager is responsible for establishing, maintaining and managing effective relations with CoO donor agencies that provide financial resources to the Bank. The post holder is accountable for ensuring quality and efficiency in the management of funds, according to the agreed governance structures and in line with the Bank’s operational needs.
