Our analysts and coordinators are drawn from across our member nations and represent a highly diverse workforce. However, to be eligible for an assistant role, you are usually required to already be living in the metropolitan Washington, D.C. area. (Non-US citizens are eligible for a visa through the IMF). Most of our analysts and coordinators will have a bachelors-level degree and/or relevant work experience.
IMF analysts and coordinators are engaged in multi-faceted and consistently evolving roles. The work is exciting and involves a lot of problem solving. The IMF works directly with its member nations on key global economic challenges to ensure economic stability and growth and our analysts and coordinators often play a critical role in supporting this mission.
As an analyst/coordinator at the IMF, you will be part of a highly skilled team with a ringside seat to important decisions that impact the global economy. We recruit analysts and coordinators for positions across the IMF with experience in areas including administration, research, budget, finance, accounting, human resources, communication, and information technology.
Roles can vary but may include the following:
Whatever the assignment, our assistants’ ability to contribute ideas and work behind the scenes to coordinate various activities is an integral part of the team and their success.
Opportunities for analyst and coordinator roles will be advertised periodically on our Workday website.
Administrative Coordinator roles are also advertised on an ongoing basis throughout the year and are normally initially hired into an Administrative Coordinator pool. Most of our Administrative Coordinators initially join the IMF on a contractual basis as part of this pool.
