Investment Associate - Social Infrastructure (5513)

The Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) is a multilateral development bank whose mission is financing the Infrastructure for Tomorrow—infrastructure with sustainability at its core. We began operations in Beijing in January 2016 and have since grown to 109 approved members worldwide. We are capitalized at USD100 billion and Triple-A-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.

AIIB’s Investment Operations comprise two regional teams, 1 and 2. Each regional team is led by a Vice President (VP) and reporting staff includes client relations specialists, technical specialists, and bankers. Region 1 is responsible for Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, and South Asia (excluding Pakistan and Afghanistan), while Region 2 covers Pakistan, Afghanistan, Central Asia, East Asia, West Asia, Europe, Africa, and Latin America.

The Social Infrastructure Department (SID), which covers both regions, is responsible for investment operations in social sectors to help expand the human capital potential in social areas. Aligned with AIIB’s Corporate Strategy, SID places a high priority on providing client-driven solutions for the digital and technological transformation of social infrastructure including health and education. Mobilization of private capital is also important to leverage the Bank’s financial resources. AIIB is scaling up its support to social sector investment programs in its members and is looking for an Investment Associate to support, process and implement social infrastructure projects.
