Senior Fund Specialist

The Infrastructure Fund (IF) announced by the President in September 2018 addresses the need for a dedicated blended financing facility for infrastructure programme projects. The aim of the IF is to transform public infrastructure financial provisioning using “blended” finance - combining capital from the public and private sectors and Development Finance Institutions (DFIs)/Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs). This will be dedicated to meeting the financing requirements for hybrid projects.

The mandate of the Infrastructure Fund has been captured in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the National Treasury, Infrastructure South Africa (ISA), and the DBSA entered into on 17 August 2020.

The Senior:
Fund Specialist (IF) is responsible for supporting the execution of the asset management and treasury functions, which include physical asset management, monitoring and evaluation of financing instruments, facilitating the mobilisation and crowding-in of capital through the structuring, distribution, and syndication of financial instruments in both primary and secondary capital markets.
