The Corporate Services Department (CSD), led by the Associate Vice-President, CSD, provides IFAD with the human resources, administrative services, safety and security, information technology resources and medical support services required to allow IFAD to meet its objectives of enabling rural people overcome poverty.

The incumbent works under the direct supervision of the Chief, Field Support Unit, in close collaboration with all divisions in CSD, and has a dual reporting line to the respective Regional Director under which the position is mapped. In performing their duties, the incumbent will carefully consider adequate separation of tasks, duties and responsibilities to reduce the risk of real/perceived conflict of interest.

The Corporate Services Manager is in charge of managing the corporate services in the assigned portfolios in the LAC region, including in the Regional Office (RO), Multi-Country Offices (MCOs), Country Director-led Country Offices, and Country Programme Officer-led Country Offices in the assigned portfolio.

They facilitate all corporate services-related actions, ensuring smooth functioning of the IFAD Regional Office as well as other Offices within the region, consistent services delivery and constant evaluation and readjustment thereof to take into account changes in the operating environment as and when needed.
