Description

The WB Finance & Accounting (WFA) Vice Presidency is responsible for all aspects of the financial reporting and internal control framework for IBRD and IDA, and the extensive Trust Fund/Partnership portfolio of the WB entities. It supports an appropriate fiduciary control framework and administering disbursements for Bank lending and leads the client service function for the WB's corporate expenses.

Organizationally, WFA is comprised of three departments: (1) Corporate Accounting and Reporting, (2) Trust Funds and Loans, and (3) Financial Controls. In WFA, our mandate supports both internal and external clients while we focus on delivery, optimization, impact, and people & culture.

**Unit Overview**:
Within WFA, the Loan Accounting Division (WFALA) directly supports the quarterly and annual year end audits, day to day accounting, management reporting and the design and implementation of new products related to the IBRD & IDA loan portfolios.

The division is accountable for the accuracy and completeness of the day-to-day accounting and reporting of the IBRD and IDA loan portfolios. This involves overseeing processes which generate accounting at the transactional and portfolio level, overseeing quarterly and fiscal loan ledger closings, and directly supporting the IBRD/IDA external audits. The division is also a key upstream provider of loan portfolio data, analyses and reports to other downstream reporting and corporate finance units who consume this information in their quarterly/fiscal year end activities.

The division is also responsible for servicing IBRD and IDA borrowers' debt repayments, monitoring repayment status, management reporting, and engaging with Bank operational teams to facilitate timely repayments.

Our division is heavily involved in the full lifecycle of new loan product development across the Bank by supporting upstream design and feasibility, to downstream implementation and stabilization. The team plays a pivotal role related to most initiatives related to the loan and guarantees portfolios.

The division is also a main focal point for addressing and researching queries from Senior Management related to the IBRD and IDA loan portfolios.

The loan accounting division is heavily engaged in new product development at the Bank, participating in the end-to-end lifecycle from initial design and feasibility to implementation and stabilization phases - and often leads some phases within the lifecycle.

The team is spread across three locations: Washington, Chennai and Manila.

WFALA is currently seeking a Financial Officer who will be based in Chennai and report to the Senior Financial Officer in Chennai.

**How your contributions will help us achieve our goals**:
This role requires sound knowledge of IBRD and IDA loan products and policies, together with a strong background and experience in monthly closings in a production accounting unit that regularly interacts with Bank colleagues across other Finance VPUs, Operations, IFC, MIGA, and the external auditors. The role also requires strong project management experience, exposure to new age technological tools and ERP systems. A large part of the work program relates to addressing urgent and unanticipated issues that arise on a regular basis - from all levels of the organization.

**What you will do**:

- Quarterly / FY end closings: Directly perform accounting closing production work for the IBRD/IDA loans portfolios. This work involves a large hands-on component working in underlying systems and other related modules. Directly engage with other corporate finance units, and the external auditors
- Financial Analysis: Proactively identify trends and/or potential inconsistencies through critical review of data and fact patterns regarding the loans portfolio. Lead/assist/support the response to queries from senior management, external auditors etc.
- Process Improvements and Efficiencies: Proactively identify and operationalize process improvements, and/or challenge status quo through use of automated solutions such as RPA, Alteryx and similar tools
- Internal Control Oversight: Proactively adopt and role model a strong control mindset to learn from past issues, identify areas in need of strengthening, and initiate appropriate actions
- Systems / business requirements: Draft and articulate business needs in business requirement documents related to new system needs, products or policies. Perform user acceptance testing of new systems and functionality
- New products - Support division's interests in new product working groups, provide inputs, comments, raise issues based upon knowledge of the business and underlying IT systems.
