Purpose of Job

The Analyst will support the green mobilisation function within the Policy, Research and Partnerships (PRP) team, part of Climate Strategy and Delivery department, in line with the Bank’s activities to effectively implement the Bank’s Green Economy Transition (GET) 2030 Strategy.

Specifically, this position will focus on the delivery of EU funding and instruments, primarily the Invest EU Programme.

The role provides analytical, operational, and coordination support across multiple EU-related workstreams, contributing to the development, implementation, and monitoring of Invest EU operations.

This includes supporting project submissions, sustainability assessments, reporting requirements, and internal processes that ensure high-quality project delivery.

Familiarity with EU programmes and regulatory frameworks is considered an advantage.

Background

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) was originally established to help build a new, post-Cold War era in central and eastern Europe, but because of its success has now expanded operations into three continents.

It has played a historic role and gained unique expertise in fostering change, with a particular focus on developing the private sector and in green investments.

The Bank has invested more than €220 billion in over 7,800 projects.

Since our beginnings in 1991, we have been helping the countries where we operate get on a path to environmentally sound and sustainable development.

The Bank uses its investments and policy dialogue to drive green growth, build resilience and enhance competitiveness.

The climate and nature crisis is a market failure and fixing it requires a fundamental transformation of how markets function.

The EBRD’s approach combines green investments, policy dialogue and technical assistance to bring about systemic change such that green investments become economically viable.

With an operational focus on the private sector, the Bank is working to set the groundwork for long-term, sustainable growth.

To date, the EBRD has signed close to €49 billion in green investments and financed over 2,600 green projects, which are expected to reduce in excess of 110 million tonnes of carbon emissions yearly.

The Bank’s most recently adopted Green Economy Transition 2030 Strategy (2026-2030) details the Bank’s objectives to support the green transition in the EBRD regions from 2026 to 2030.

Grounded in its response to the needs and requirements of its countries of operation and clients, the Bank will continue to support and enhance market transition that takes into account aligning with the goals of the Paris Agreement and environmental sustainability, scaling green mobilisation and support system-level transformation that promote competitiveness and resilience of its countries of operations.
