Description

The World Bank Group is seeking a joint Country Manager for Kuwait based in Kuwait City. The Country Manager reports to the IBRD Division Director for the Gulf Cooperation Council and the IFC Division Director for Gulf Cooperation Council and serves as a member of the IBRD and IFC regional management teams.

To address country development needs and global challenges with impact and at scale, IBRD/IDA, IFC and MIGA are increasingly working as One World Bank Group through purposeful collaboration, coordination, and deployment of our collective knowledge and services. Through this approach, we aim to streamline and simplify our country engagement, allowing countries to better leverage the comparative advantages of each WBG institution and access solutions that maximize the respective strengths of the public and private sectors.

A critical role in delivering this approach is the new joint Country Manager role that is being established in several countries to represent the WBG in relationships with the government, private sector clients, and key partners and oversee the operations, investments, and programs of all WBG institutions in the country.

VPU Context:

The World Bank provides Kuwait with reimbursable services through an agreed Country Program. This relationship is a long-standing development partnership dating back to the early 1960s. As part of this partnership, the World Bank has contributed its global knowledge and international experience to support Kuwait's development plans and the State of Kuwait has supported many of the World Bank's global development institutions and programs. The World Bank currently provides these advisory services within four strategic pillars: strengthening human development, improving public sector performance, promoting private sector development, and enhancing critical infrastructure development. The Country Office in Kuwait delivers its Country Program by drawing on the global expertise, experience, and resources of the World Bank.

IFC's work in Kuwait primarily focuses on mobilizing private capital and institutional investors to support development in underdeveloped markets across the region. By leveraging Kuwait's strong financial sector and investment appetite, IFC partners with leading institutions to channel resources toward impactful projects in emerging economies. These efforts aim to foster economic diversification, job creation, and sustainable growth beyond Kuwait's borders.

The priorities for the WBG in Kuwait are:

- Align with Kuwait Vision 2035 ("New Kuwait") and emphasize the World Bank Group's commitment to supporting Kuwait's goals of economic diversification, sustainability, human capital development, and effective governance.

- Engage with government authorities and private sector stakeholders to support Kuwait's transition from a hydrocarbon-dependent economy to a more diversified and knowledge-based one .

- Facilitate Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) to drive large-scale infrastructure projects in line with national development priorities.

- Promote gender equality and youth empowerment through targeted programs, capacity building, and strategic partnerships.

- Identify and support renewable energy initiatives and climate-resilient infrastructure to enhance environmental sustainability.

- Facilitate IFC and World Bank engagements that advance resource efficiency, innovation, and sustainable development goals.

- Advocate for green financing and ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) best practices within Kuwait's private sector.

- Support and facilitate private sector companies to invest outside Kuwait specifically in emerging markets.

- Drive IFC Vision 2030 by scaling private capital and equity in EMDEs, mobilizing Kuwait's co-financing and blended finance for impactful investments, and advancing the WBG jobs agenda. Align efforts with Kuwait's economic diversification goals and SWF optimization to foster sustainable growth, quality jobs, and long-term dividends for future generations.
