Our mission is to improve the lives of our people in Latin America and the Caribbean. Here you will find purpose and the opportunity to do what you love in an inclusive, collaborative, agile, and rewarding environment.
You can grow personally and professionally at the IDB. We recognize that growth comes in different forms and times in everyone’s career. To that end, we provide opportunities for continuous learning, mentoring, networking and more that adapt to your needs.
We seek to provide our people with benefits that respond to the different needs and moments in their life, a compensation package, and options to reward and recognize their work.
It is crucial that we are transparent about our progress so far and where we are heading. Our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) reports explain our targeted efforts, how we measure our progress, and the areas we will continue working on in the upcoming years.
Our organization has earned the EDGE certification for the third time, a prestigious business distinction recognizing our efforts to be an equitable workplace. EDGE has evaluated our organization on equal pay for equivalent work, recruitment and promotion, leadership development, training, mentoring; flexible working arrangements; and company culture.
The IDB is the first development bank in the Americas and the second worldwide to earn EDGE Move, the second level of this distinction, which reaffirms our commitment to placing equity at the center of our talent management efforts.
In our culture, everyone brings their best and authentic self to work, tries new approaches without fear, and is accountable and rewarded for their actions.
We acknowledge that building a culture of inclusion, equity and belonging demands being international at every step of the process.
