Department Context
The WBG Corporate Solutions Department (ITSCO) is focused on the digital transformation of essential corporate services to ensure WBG operations are seamless, resilient, and future‑ready. Uniting digitalization roadmaps, experience design, process optimization, application delivery, systems management, and technology modernization across some 170 products and services, the department links business ambition with operational excellence-from intuitive employee experiences and precision payroll to data-driven decision making, intelligent automation, and AI enablement. Operating from Washington, Chennai, Sofia, and Singapore in a global delivery model, the team seeks to combine disciplined strategic planning with focused roadmaps, agile product delivery, design‑forward innovation, digital engineering, automation, and AI to produce solutions that are engaging, impactful, and efficient. The goal is a unified, OneWBG corporate backbone-streamlined, connected, and adaptive-that empowers leaders, staff, partners, and shareholders with the processes, capabilities, and insights to advance the WBG's mission at scale.
The department comprises of four distinct but complementary units which work closely together to deliver on the department's mandate:
* Corporate Digital Acceleration unit: Accelerates digital transformation for corporate business functions through design thinking, digital innovation, rapid prototyping, reimagining processes, and AI enablement, e.g. AI-first work digitalization strategies.

Loosely aligned with the "systems of engagement" concept, this unit will focus on the full spectrum of stakeholder experiences - encompassing employees, shareholders, partners, the public, and beyond. Our purview includes high-impact corporate platforms such as the intranet, external websites, and tools supporting employee engagement, Board relations, recruitment, onboarding, talent development, learning, travel, leave, time recording, desk booking, and other solutions that touch the day-to-day work of the WBG's global workforce and millions of external users. These are mission-critical, high‑visibility products, where speed, intuitiveness, and agility are paramount. The six teams that fall under this unit include:

* External Experience: Designs and maintains digital engagement platforms to enhance how millions of clients, partners, development practitioners, academics, journalists, beneficiaries, and citizens interact with the WBG.
To meet this ambitious mandate, the unit will operate with a product management mindset - blending agile delivery, modern application development practices (including low/no‑code and AI), design thinking, and forward engineering to deliver solutions that delight and empower. Product roadmaps, epics, features, user stories, sprints, MVPs, and continuous improvement are par for the course. We will embody strong relationship management with our business partners, ensuring delivery that is both timely and deeply responsive to user needs.
