The figures on this page are quoted net, per year, in USD.
These figures come from the World Bank Group scale for the FY27 fiscal year, as published by the World Bank Group. We last read that source and confirmed these figures on 18 August 2026.
This is the staff salary structure. World Bank vacancies also advertise Extended Term (ET) and Extended Term Consultant (EC) appointments, whose levels — EC1 to EC4, ET1 to ET4 — are not on this scale and are not published as a country table, so no figure is shown for them rather than a staff-grade figure that would not apply.
This is not a UN common-system salary. The World Bank Group sets its own pay, so there is no post adjustment and no ICSC scale behind this grade — it cannot be compared with a P-4 or a GS-6 without accounting for the difference in basis.
