IDB Invest is the private sector arm of the IDB Group and an international financial institution committed to addressing the development needs of Latin America and the Caribbean. Our mission is to support sustainable enterprises and projects that deliver financial results while maximizing social and environmental impact in the region.
IDB Invest operates in 26 countries, structured across four geographic regions and three industry verticals: Infrastructure and Energy, Financial Intermediaries, and Corporates.
In support of a new transformative business model “Originate to Share” our shareholders recently approved a $3.5 billion capitalization. This will allow IDB Invest to significantly scale up its investments, to approximately $19 billion, and unlocking greater private sector participation to drive development and climate impact across the region.
IDB Invest is seeking a dynamic, client-oriented, Korean-speaking Consultant to support the Trade, Supply Chain and Commodity Finance Division (TSF) within the Financial Solutions, Mobilization and Asset Sharing Department (FSM). This consulting assignment will support the expansion of supply chain finance business pipelines, the origination and structuring of transactions, and the development and implementation of scalable financial products for clients in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), with particular emphasis on opportunities involving Korean companies, financial institutions, investors and strategic partners.
FSM provides specialized financial solutions, mobilizes third-party capital and supports the institution’s originate-to-share model. Within FSM, TSF develops and delivers trade, supply chain and commodity finance solutions across financial institutions and corporate clients.
You will work in TSF and collaborate closely with FSM colleagues, regional and industry teams, development effectiveness, risk, legal, environmental and social, integrity, treasury, operations and mobilization teams. You will contribute across the transaction cycle—from market mapping and client engagement through preliminary screening, structuring, approval, implementation and monitoring—with a primary focus on building a high-quality supply chain finance pipeline and advancing product development.
The role will help connect Korean corporates, banks, fintechs, investors and public-sector ecosystem partners with opportunities in LAC. The Consultant will support financing and risk-mitigation solutions across the supply chain, including accounts payable finance, accounts receivable finance, working-capital facilities, import and pre-export finance, guarantees, unfunded risk participations and mobilization structures, subject to applicable IDB Invest policies and approvals
Type of Contract: Full-Time Externally Funded Consultant
Length of Contract: 12 months, with possibility of renewal
