Overview

A donor funded program for junior and mid-career professionals, of different nationalities, to gain valuable insights, exposure and experience from the Bank’s internal perspective.

Details

The World Bank’s Donor Funded Staffing Program (DFSP) is a staffing program funded by Donor Governments. The objective of DFSP is to contribute to the achievement of the Bank's diversity targets and capacity building efforts through the recruitment of both junior and mid-career professionals, in Headquarters and Country Offices. The DFSP consolidates the two previous stand-alone Donor funded programs, Junior Professional Officers (JPO) Program and Externally Funded Staffing Program (EFSP) under a single umbrella with two recruitment windows: Junior Professional Officers (JPO) and Mid-Career (MC) Professionals. The Program continues to allow Donors and the Bank to leverage their development agendas more strategically.

Participation

Participation is coordinated between partner countries and the Bank. DFSP-eligible positions are advertised by the donor countries at a national level (by ministries, government agencies, etc.) and qualified candidates are put forward by donors. The Bank makes all final hiring decisions.

WHO WE ARE

With 189 member countries, staff from more than 170 countries, and offices in over 130 locations, the World Bank Group is a unique global partnership: five institutions working for sustainable solutions that reduce poverty and build shared prosperity in developing countries.
