ITS Vice Presidency Context Information and Technology Solutions (ITS) enable the WBG to achieve its mission of ending extreme poverty and promote shared prosperity in a sustainable way by delivering transformative information and technologies to its staff working in over 150 locations. Our vision is to transform how the Bank Group accomplishes its mission through information and technology. In this fast-paced, ever-changing world, the formulation and implementation of the ITS strategy is an ongoing, iterative process of learning and adaptation developed through extensive consultations with business partners throughout the World Bank Group. ITS shapes its strategy in response to changing business priorities and leverages new technologies to achieve three high-level business outcomes: business enablement, by providing Bank Group units with innovative digital tools and technologies to transform how they deliver value for their clients; empowerment effectiveness, by ensuring that all Bank Group staff are connected, able to find information, and productive to accelerate the delivery of development solutions globally; and resilience, by equipping the Bank Group to provide risk-based cybersecurity and robust data protection for a global network and a growing cloud platform. Implementation of the strategy is guided by three core principles. The first is to deliver solutions for business partners that are customer-centric, innovative, and transformative. The second is to provide the Bank Group with value for money with selective and standard technologies. The third principle is to excel at the basics by providing a high performing, robust, and resilient IT environment for the organization.

ITSFI is additionally responsible for building its IT services using a shared platform that provides scale, leverage, reliability, and control while at the same time improving responsiveness to emerging business needs. The ITSFI team is accountable for the implementation of the ITS Strategy supporting WBG core finance business processes. As a unit within the Finance ITS, ITSFE provides IT applications to support VPUs engaged in Trust Fund management, donor fund oversight, project execution, and transfer of funds activities throughout the WBG. Key products and systems within the portfolio include the Trust Fund Portal, which serves as the primary platform for managing and reporting on trust fund operations, and the Shareholder Record keeping system, which supports the accurate tracking and management of donor contributions and shareholding arrangements. Technical Competencies Required ITSFE is seeking a skilled and experienced person to perform the role of ET Consultant in our growing team. The ET Consultant will perform fully professional-level analyses and contribute substantially to the delivery of trust fund products and systems.
