**External and Corporate Relations Vice-Presidency (ECR)**

The mission of External and Corporate Relations (ECR) is to help deliver financial and political support for the World Bank Group, strengthen the Bank Group’s role as a global thought leader in development by enhancing and safeguarding its reputation, and supporting operational teams to achieve country outcomes. ECR manages corporate communications and global engagement with key stakeholders, including media, civil society, foundations, private sector, donor countries, and international organizations, as well as employee engagement. ECR also manages strategic communications for the World Bank’s Regions and Global Practices and leads the management of reputation risk.

**External and Corporate Affairs - Europe**

ECR Europe manages relationships with key stakeholders, including government counterparts, parliament, civil society, private sector, media, academia and international organizations in the traditional European development partner and donor countries.

The World Bank’s Brussels Office opened in 1996 to deepen its partnership with the European Union Institutions (EUIs), Belgium, Luxembourg and NATO. The Brussels Office is co-located with IFC. The World Bank Group team consists of over 70 staff mapped to ten different VPU. The Brussels Office is headed by the World Bank Special Representative to the EU, Belgium, Luxembourg and NATO, who reports to the Special Representative for Europe, under the External and Corporate Relations Vice-Presidency.

The Brussels Office supports the WBG's operational departments (1) in their dealings with the EU Institutions, particularly the EC and the EIB, with member states chaired by the rotating Presidency of the Council of Ministers, and (2) in implementing effective outreach and communications strategies vis-à-vis other Brussels-based actors - including the European Parliament, civil society organizations, private sector representatives, think tanks and media outlets.

- Maintain and develop strong partnerships with key interlocutors, more specifically European Commission Directorates-General and services (e.g. INTPA, NEAR,, EEAS), as well as the European Investment Bank (EIB) and EU Development Finance Institutions, to advance the WBG’s strategic agenda. Involve relevant WBG teams to ensure collaboration is advanced at policy and operational level and support VPUs on business development, including around innovative financing mechanisms and fundraising opportunities.

Engage with relevant partners to ensure the Brussels Office is well represented and WBG’s agenda advanced across a spectrum of development priorities. This will entail close collaboration with various WBG units, including Development Finance (DFI), the Equitable Growth, Finance, and Institutions (EFI), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), with a geographic focus on LAC and the EU neighborhood regions. This entails close coordination with ECA/MNA teams. The incumbent will also be asked to support the bilateral relationship with Luxembourg stakeholders.
- Gather intelligence and write policy briefs/papers in tandem with the Special Representative and ECR teams located in Europe and/or World Bank headquarters (HQ) on key issues i.a. related to sustainable development.
- Represent the WBG at meetings, events and conferences, including UN Brussels Team coordination meetings), informal and formal sessions and launches of partner publications.
- Facilitate the work of other World Bank units/individuals to organize, plan, coordinate, and implement outreach activities of the World Bank in Brussels, including consultations with stakeholders and launches.
- Provide issue and logístical support on agendas of WBG strategic engagements with EU institutions and high-level missions to Brussels and Luxembourg.
- Support effective professional relationships with key external constituencies within civil society stakeholders (NGOs, think-tanks, academia, and private sector).

**Specific tasks may include, but are not limited to**:

- Draft presentations, speeches, key messages and talking points, and organize briefing materials for the Special Representative and other senior level staff;
