(Senior) Investment Solutions Specialist - multi-sectors The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is a multilateral development bank whose mission is Financing Infrastructure for Tomorrow in Asia and beyond-infrastructure with sustainability at its core. 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 Sectors, Themes, and Finance Solutions Department (STF) plays a pivotal role in advancing technical excellence and expanding financing knowledge across sectors and themes to support both sovereign and non-sovereign investment operations at AIIB. STF provides forward-looking strategic guidance, shaping the direction and impact of AIIB's operations by spearheading upstream work, fostering new initiatives in frontier technologies, and offering public-private partnership (PPP) advisory services. The department ensures that AIIB's investment operations align fully with the Bank's corporate strategy, while supporting Client Departments (CDs) in executing sectoral strategies and thematic priorities to maximize development impact.
STF is also at the forefront of introducing and operationalizing new financial products and modalities, such as the recently established Climate-Focused Policy-Based Financing (CPBF) instrument, before these are mainstreamed by the CDs. Additionally, STF represents AIIB in international forums on sectoral, thematic, and financial issues, helping establish the Bank's global reputation as a leading development institution through active networking with partners and contributing to global development agendas.
To support its climate agenda, STF is currently recruiting Specialists / Senior Specialists to help operationalize the CPBF instrument, which is designed to assist AIIB Members in implementing policy reforms that promote climate resilience and low-carbon development. These Specialists / Senior Specialists will play a critical role in ensuring the successful deployment of the CPBF instrument and providing expert advisory support to AIIB's CDs and clients.
Responsibilities
The Specialists / Senior Specialists will provide technical expertise and advisory support for the CDs, ensuring that new products and technologies meet client needs, generate development impact, and align with AIIB's mandate. They will assist in demonstrating proof of concept through pilot projects when needed and support the CDs' project teams in preparing and implementing sector investments, including CPBF.

Key responsibilities include:
  • Advising project teams on structuring investment operations to align with country development priorities and AIIB's strategies and overall operational objectives, ensuring smooth project processing and implementation.
  • Advising clients on the preparation of project feasibility studies, sector-specific, and thematic studies to facilitate loan processing by investment departments, ensuring alignment with project requirements.
  • Reviewing and analyzing clients' policy and regulatory frameworks, identifying gaps and constraints, and formulating time-bound policy actions for inclusion in CPBF operations for government consideration.
  • Participating in strategic dialogues with clients, co-financing partners, and stakeholders to identify business opportunities that enhance project design and outcomes and to advocate for policy reforms that promote climate resilience and low-carbon development as part of CPBF operations.
  • Fostering partnerships with MDBs, government agencies, and international organizations to leverage collective expertise and ensure the successful implementation of CPBF programs.
  • Supporting the creation, maintenance, and dissemination of operational knowledge, with a focus on lessons learned and emerging best practices in project processing and implementation.
  • Preparing regular reports for AIIB senior management, staff, and clients, outlining key achievements, challenges, and lessons learned during project processing and implementation in the responsible sectors.
  • Developing training manuals and materials to strengthen the capacity of AIIB staff and clients, ensuring effective project execution and long-term management.

Qualifications
  • Candidates should have an advanced degree (Master's or equivalent) in economics, public policy, engineering, finance, environmental science, or related fields.
  • Candidates must have an in-depth understanding of one or more key infrastructure sectors, such as energy, transport, urban development, water, or health and education. For the Specialist position, a minimum of 5 - 8 years of experience is required, while for the Senior Specialist position, a minimum of 8 - 10 years of experience in development project processing and implementation is required, ideally with multilateral or bilateral development institutions.
  • Proven track record in contributing to high-level policy dialogues with governments, providing actionable advice on climate-related reforms.
  • Strong technical and analytical abilities to address complex policy issues and offer practical solutions aligned with AIIB's climate and development goals.
  • Experience in processing and implementing infrastructure projects in developing countries, particularly policy-based loans, is highly desirable.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to build and maintain relationships with governments, MDBs, and other stakeholders.
  • Ability to work constructively in a multicultural environment and contribute as a collaborative team member in multi-disciplinary teams.
  • Fluency in English required; proficiency in additional languages spoken in AIIB's regions is a plus.
