Working at the World Bank Group provides a unique opportunity for you to help our clients solve their greatest development challenges. The World Bank Group is one of the largest sources of funding and knowledge for developing countries; a unique global partnership of five institutions dedicated to ending extreme poverty, increasing shared prosperity and promoting sustainable development. With 189 member countries and more than 120 offices worldwide, we work with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges.

<br>
<b>Regional Context</b><br>
<br>
<b>The Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan and Pakistan (MENAAP) Region</b><br>
<br>
The Middle East and North Africa, Afghanistan, and Pakistan Region serves 22 countries across different income groups, of which 14 are active/potentially active IBRD/IDA borrowers (Afghanistan, Algeria, Djibouti, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Pakistan, Syria, West Bank and Gaza, Tunisia, and Yemen), with a total of 251 projects and over US$51 bn in total commitment. Eight are users of the Region's non-lending services, mostly on a reimbursable basis (Bahrain, Kuwait, Libya, Malta, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates). The mission of the region is to foster sustainable growth with a focus on job creation and poverty reduction, economic and social inclusion, and good governance. The region attaches importance to creating a supportive work environment based on the values of teamwork, transparency, trust, and client service, underlined by professional excellence. The region places high value on diversity. The region is organized into seven Country Departments (CMUs), the Office of the Regional Chief Economist, and the Development Effectiveness Unit (MAPDE).<br>
<br>
With an expanded regional strategy, the World Bank aims to help the region weather the current crises, move from stabilization to transformation, unlock its vast economic potential of youth and women, develop its human capital to adapt to global megatrends, and foster innovation. For more information, please visit <b>www.worldbank.org/en/region/mena</b>.<br>
<br>
<b>People Vice Presidency</b><br>
<br>
The People Vertical at the World Bank Group supports countries with their human development &ndash; to protect and invest in their people, enabling them to reach their full potential and enjoy a good quality life. Better lives and better futures are only possible when all people have equal access to quality health care, education and social protection, and when all people have the opportunity to build and draw on their human capital throughout life to learn, work, create businesses, have dignity and quality of life, even amid challenges.<br>
<br>
When Countries strategically invest in people and the systems designed to protect and build human capital at scale, they unlock the wealth of nations and the potential of everyone. Entire societies are more resilient against economic downturns, climate change, and conflicts. When girls and women are given equal opportunities to develop their full potential, everyone benefits. And when people migrate, whether by choice or not, their human capital can make the critical difference between surviving and thriving.<br>
<br>
The Regional Practice Director for People in MENAAP is based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and oversees the Education, Gender, Health, Nutrition and Population, Social Protection and Labor program in the region, which in turn are each led by Practice Managers.<br>
<br>
<b>Planet Vertical</b><br>
<br>
The Planet Vertical in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region consists of four global practices: Agriculture and Food; Environment, Natural Resources and the Blue Economy; Social Inclusion, and Water. The Climate Change Group is also part of the Vertical.<br>
<br>
The MENA Planet&rsquo;s mission is to help clients protect and effectively use their natural wealth &ndash; air, land, and water &ndash; for inclusive and stable societies. In line with this mission, the MENA Planet&rsquo;s value proposition is to help client countries promote water and food security and build resilience against climate risks; use natural resources well for jobs and long-term growth; and increase stability and trust between society and government on key development issues.<br>
<br>
While the MENA Planet&rsquo;s work in the region is thematically broad, there are clear priorities. The first is to put insights from the World Bank&rsquo;s Climate Country and Development Reports into action, seizing opportunities for jobs and green growth, managing transitions, and adapting to climate risks in a way that makes macro-fiscal sense and advances poverty reduction. Secondly, the World Bank&rsquo;s focus on water and food security is critically relevant to stability and growth in the MENA region and will continue to form a central part of the Vertical&rsquo;s portfolio, including through work on subsidy reform. Thirdly, vertical looks to do more to protect coastal resources, grow the blue economy, and sustain livability and livelihoods in drylands, forests, and oases, in alignment with the World Bank&rsquo;s global efforts to enhance forest management. Finally, the MENA Planet vertical will continue to emphasize its enabling role for work in the region&rsquo;s fragile and conflict-affected economies, and for the critical challenge of inclusion, especially with a view to jobs for youth and women.<br>
<br>
Within the department, the Regional Director&rsquo;s front office is a small team consisting of operations, analytical, climate, and administrative specialists. It supports the Regional Director in managing the investment portfolio, overseeing analytical work, as well as corporate and external relations roles.<br>
