Are you a highly qualified and motivated professional from an African Development Bank Group member country seeking a rewarding career path in development? If so, the Young Professionals Program (YPP) might be the perfect opportunity for you. This three-year leadership program is designed to groom the Bank’s future leaders, ensuring continuity and excellence in managing work programs and providing policy advice to regional member countries.
If you are a young professional under the age of 32 with a Master’s degree or equivalent in a relevant discipline, along with at least 3 years of work experience in high-priority areas, such as coding, e-development, animation, and platform design, then you could be a strong candidate for the YPP. Applicants must also demonstrate a passion for Africa’s development, possess strong analytical skills, and be proficient in English and/or French, the Bank’s working languages.
The application process for the YPP is online and highly competitive, so make sure to provide comprehensive and relevant information. Candidates with dual nationality should declare only one nationality from a member country. Successful applicants will be appointed Young Professionals under their declared nationality for the program’s duration. If you’re ready to embark on a transformative journey in development, consider applying for the YPP and visit the official website for more details.
